MP Fun Run on Friday
Our MP Fun Run is this Friday! Parents are welcome to come watch students participate in the portion that takes place outdoors, and details are below.
- Students will be outside the first half of their regularly scheduled specials time. Schedule below.
- No need to sign in. Just go around back to the playground area.
- Parking will be tight, so walk to MP if you can.
Student Daily Snacks
To help keep our students energized and focused throughout the day, each classroom sets aside time for a daily snack break. Please send your child to school with a healthy snack from home each day to help them refuel.
Please keep the following important guidelines in mind:
Bring Snacks from Home: The school does not keep an extra supply of snacks on hand, so students who forget their snack will not have one provided.
No Snack Sharing: For safety, allergy prevention, and health reasons, students are strictly prohibited from sharing snacks with classmates.
We want to make sure every student has what they need to succeed. If your family is experiencing financial need and requires assistance with food resources, please reach out to Jenny Steele, and our team will be glad to support you.
Thank you for your partnership in keeping our students nourished and ready to learn!

Lunch With Your Timberwolf
We are happy to welcome families in to join their Timberwolves for lunch! Due to the size of our cafeteria, we do need to limit the number of guests each day. Lunch visits start after Labor Day, and some days are not listed due to special events.
Guidelines:
- Prior sign-up is required.
- Each slot covers two guests.
- Upon arrival, office staff will check for your sign-up.
- If you did not sign up online for that day, plan to reschedule for a different day.
- Lunch will take place in the cafeteria, as we don't have other available spaces.
- You may bring lunch in for your student, but may NOT share food with other students, even if you have prior approval from a parent.
- If you'd like to purchase a school lunch, contact our front office by 9:15 AM to order.
- Payment is not accepted on site, so be sure to have enough $$ on your child's meal account to cover.
