A Message from the Principal

Memorial Families:

Our 8th-grade students participated in Memorial’s “Make a Difference Day.”  Our students made a tremendous impact on Lake County by volunteering at numerous organizations. It was inspiring to see our students give back to the community and represent Mentor Schools in such a positive manner.  I am very proud of our students and staff for their hard work and effort during the event.  Here’s a video recapping the event.

I hope our 8th graders had a moment last week that helped put their lives into perspective.  Going into the community  and helping others can be eye opening.  Witnessing first hand homelessness, food pantries, and working alongside individuals with disabilities or elderly are lessons I want each and every one of our Memorial students to have.

Memorial students took the ELA State Tests this week.  The dates of each assessment are outlined below.  As the tests are taken in an online format on the Chromebook, it is critical that students bring their fully charged Chromebook to each test.  Please assist us in reminding your child to bring their charged Chromebook to school and encourage your child to get a good night’s sleep and eat breakfast throughout our testing days. If your family has a prearranged vacation during testing, please contact our guidance department (440-974-2255)  to schedule an alternate testing day for your child. In addition, students should bring a calculator on Math testing dates: 

We will be running an adjusted schedule on April 16th and 17th for our State Math test.   Please see below:
