Notes for the week:
We are excited to welcome our students back from spring break! We have 2 months left in the school year and they are guaranteed to go by quickly as we "Finish Strong", like our CKH monthly theme of Perseverance teaches us. Be on the lookout for lots of updates regarding state and district testing, field trips, end of year awards and other fun opportunities. The WAG is updated each week with pertinent information; you can also check our Facebook page for new announcements or call the school office with any questions you may have. We are here and happy to help you!

MPMS Accelerated Math Program and MPMS French Students Attendance on Days with an Irregular Schedule
For Elementary Students Attending MPMS
These students WILL NOT attend on most days that alter the daily schedule, including delay days, half days, and days where MPMS students start with first hour. One issue is that there may not be a bus available to transport them back to their elementary schools. Another issue on delay days is that they will be finished with their MPMS math class long before their elementary start time.
The only exception to this rule will be days where they will be taking their trimester exams. They will indeed attend on exam days, even with the change in schedule.
For MPMS Students Attending MPHS
These students WILL NOT attend on delay days, half days, and all other irregular days unless otherwise instructed by their MPHS Math/French teacher.
