"It's a boy!" I mean..."It's a Sea Turtle!"

MMES has adopted two sea turtles!  Thanks to four of our environmentally conscious students, MMES has adopted two sea turtles that reside at "The Turtle Hospital" in Marathon, Florida!  Anna Coyne, Sarah Adams, Lily Athanas, and Isabella DiPasquale put their heads together earlier this year and decided they wanted to help save sea turtles.  They asked for permission to put a collection jar in the lobby, and to their delight they rasied enough money to sponsor two giant sea turtles.  We are all very impressed with their efforts and proud of them!  Check out the website below...our turtles are the second and last ones on the list (no...we did not name them).  Next time you visit MMES, look for the display in the lobby with pictures and facts about our newest family members!  Way to go girls!
