Ben’s Bells Student of the Week!

Mesa Verde recognizes Kind Kids on our Kind Campus. Students are nominated by their peers. Each week we recognize one student who has been exceptionally kind.

This week, this student was awarded the Ben's Bell for the week. She was nominated by a friend

who says, "she was very kind and helped me practice my math facts."

Staff Spotlight

Each week we will spotlight one of the members of the Mesa Verde Staff. This

week will are spotlighting our new 4th grade teacher, Mrs. Inglett.

Welcome to Mesa Verde! We are so glad you are here.

Hi, my name is Lindsay Inglett and I am so excited to teach 4th grade at Mesa Verde this year! Fourth grade was my favorite grade when I was in elementary school. It seems pretty perfect that I get to teach 4th grade every day. I am married and have a 4-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son. I love spending time with my family, cooking, crafting, and watching U of A basketball. Go Cats!
