Good afternoon Mount Pleasant Elementary Families,
We had a very busy week and we hope that you will read through the info below and enjoy the photos. A special thank you for coming to school on time to all of our MPE Lions. It makes a big difference. We know this is no easy task and we appreciate all of your support in this area. Great job, everyone.
Proud To Be MPE!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Dr. Dolan
After a fun filled Hispanic Heritage celebration early this year, the Cultural Celebrations Committee is excited to bring another event to get everyone grooving. Hip-Hop recently celebrated its 50th birthday. And who doesn't like Hip Hop? Hip-Hop is woven into television and film, fashion, advertising, literature, politics and countless other corners of everyday life. It is lingua franca, impossible to avoid, and truly multicultural in today's times.
To be a class presenter and engage students with an activity celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Hip-Hop, please sign up HERE
Did you know that there are nearly 60 countries and cultures represented in the MPE Community?
At MPE, we want to celebrate what makes us different! Please join us as we help our children explore the world and all of the cultures at MPE! The Cultural Celebrations Committee facilitates several exciting celebrations observing various global cultures & traditions represented at MPE. This is made possible with help from amazing parent volunteers & presenters who run the show. The presenters deliver a short lesson followed by a hands-on experience (craft, game, dance, etc). It's imperative that parents lead by example through engaging in presentations of various cultures, not just their own. The presentations and activities are pre-created, reviewed and approved by the Cultural Celebrations Committee and its volunteers in partnership with the school administration

Due to rising payment processing interchange fees and increased operational costs, MySchoolBucks is adjusting the per-transaction program fee for school meals to $3.25 for each credit/debit card payment beginning on March 7. If you do not want to pay this per-transaction fee, you have the option of sending in a check made payable to the LPS Cafeteria Account into school with your child. Place checks in an envelope marked "Cafeteria." Checks must include your child's name and student ID number listed in the memo column so that the money is placed in the correct account.
