PACT
Similar to elementary school PTOs, PACT (Parents and Community Together) works to build a strong, inclusive community at MGMS. Every MGMS parent and caregiver is a member.
Join us to learn about events and initiatives happening at MGMS!
Next meeting: Monday, January 13 @ 7-8 PM (online only)
We are taking a break from meetings for the holiday season but will be back in January!

Event Information and Volunteer Opportunities
Tell Me About It
Thanks to a grant from the District 279 Foundation as well as volunteers generous with their time and talents, 8th graders will learn about skilled trades jobs on Nov 21-22 through the career exploration program “Tell Me About It.” Interested in talking to middle schoolers about your career? More opportunities will be announced over the next few months.
Winter Wear Drive
Today is the last day of the Winter Wear Drive. Thank you to all who participated! Donated coats and other winter wear will be offered first to MGMS and other district students in need; anything remaining will be donated to community assistance organizations.
Volunteers are welcome and appreciated throughout the year! Check out an overview of events for this school year, and pledge your support today!
Advocacy
Learn about ISD 279’s 2024-2025 legislative priorities and contact your legislators to ask them to support the priorities you’re passionate about.
PACT Meetings
One of the best ways for parents and caregivers to know what’s going on at MGMS and positively affect the school is to attend a PACT meeting. PACT Meetings are held once a month (except March and December) from 7:00–8:00 pm. 2024 meeting dates are posted on the website. There is always an online attendance option; some meetings also occur in person.
