Drop off/Pickup Procedures: For everyone's safety, we need parents/guardians to follow a few procedures when dropping off and picking up at East Elementary and the middle school. 1. If you need to walk your child up to the building, please park your vehicle in a parking space. 2. Do not stop in the street to drop off or pick up your child. 3. On Park Street, use the far west lane to drop off. If you need to come into the building, please park in the parking lot or a parking stall. 4. If the bus stop arm is out, do not go around it, even on Park Street. We want to ensure kids get to school safely, whether they are walking, riding their bikes, or getting dropped off. Let's have a great school year.

Today marked Triathlon Day for the volleyball team — a long-standing tradition now in its 18th year. We are incredibly proud of our athletes for stepping outside their comfort zones and embracing the challenge with determination and grit. Their effort and enthusiasm set a strong tone for the season ahead, and we’re excited to officially begin practice next Monday.

The MHS Whippet Band has been hard at work preparing for the 2025 marching season! Their field show this year is titled "Thor's Hammer" and will feature a story about Asgard, Mjolnir, Odin, and the Frost Giants. If you happen to catch the band in a parade this Fall, you will hear "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana.
