For nearly 40 years, March has been officially designated by the National Association for Music Education (NAfME) for the observance of Music In Our Schools Month®.
To celebrate this month, the music teachers at MPS are going to share some stories and facts every week!

Anybody else want to find a comfy spot in the library to enjoy a book?! These preschoolers are loving their library time.

Mark your calendar for kindergarten registration!

Ms. Wippel's Plant Production class harvested the lettuce from the Grow Tower today. After it was all harvested they gave it to the kitchen to use in the salad bar at lunch!

It was a great day for the Minden H.S. Quiz Bowl teams at Gothenburg! The A team was perfect at the tournament, winning all their matches for a 4-0 record. Holdrege also finished the day unbeaten, but unfortunately the two teams never met head-to-head. The tie-breaker was "most points scored," and Holdrege edged out Minden to claim the championship. Minden was undefeated, but finished as the Runner-Up.

The Minden B team was IMPRESSIVE today at the Gothenburg Quiz Bowl, going undefeated for the day and earning 1st place in the JV division.

Congratulations to the Whippet Speech Team on a great day at the Southwest Conference Speech Meet! The team finished as the SWC Runner Up!! Individual champions included Nathan Althouse (Entertainment), Sam Cederburg (Extemporaneous), and Nathan Althouse/Sophia Cederberg/Addison Klabunde/Dawson Conyers/Elizabeth Hunt (OID). GREAT JOB WHIPPET SPEECH TEAM!!!
