Robin & the Sherwood Hoodies would like to invite you to an amazing show, where only the best performers will receive a giant Oswald award. Join us Thursday and Friday at 7:30 pm in the MPS auditorium.
We'd like to mention that Miss Oberg will be taking her final bow as our director this week. Please join us in celebrating her by attending the show and signing her new life-size Oswald award in the commons area. Leave her a quick note on the back to wish her the best of luck in her retirement. Her dedication to our school and our students is unmatched, and she deserves a standing ovation!

🚌💛 Happy School Bus Driver Appreciation Day! 💛🚌
We are so lucky to have the best, most fun, and caring bus drivers around! They do so much more than get our students to and from school safely, they greet them with smiles, share laughs, and help start and end each day on a positive note.
Thank you for all you do!
