Notes for the week:

This one is going to be short and sweet as we soak up the last days of 2025 at MPMS. We will be spending our time learning and celebrating as we continue spirit days, recognize our honor roll, students of the month and CKH spotlight students, and celebrate positive behavior and a successful fundraiser. So much fun ahead, thank you for letting us spend this time with your student(s).

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.
