A Few Words From the Principal

So nice to see so many of you at conferences! We loved learning about your student and being able to share with you their successes and how they can continue to grow this year. If you were not able to make conferences and would like to talk with your student's teachers please reach out to them via email and they will work to schedule a time that works for everyone. We are here to partner with you in your student's success. If you ever have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to the teachers.

Thank you parents and PTA for keeping our energy up with all of the snacks and dinner from The Other Place during conferences!

Our Timberwolves Are Shopping! Help Keep Wolf Tracks Stocked! 🐺

Our Timberwolves have been busy shopping at the Wolf Tracks Store, and it's time to restock! Students earn Wolf Tracks tickets for demonstrating safe, respectful, and responsible behavior, then use them to shop for rewards each month.

Want to help us keep the shelves stocked and the positive choices coming? Shop our Wolf Tracks Amazon Wish List to purchase items directly for our store. Every donation helps us celebrate students who make MTMS a great place to learn and belong. Thank you for your support!
