This Week in Sports at MPGS!!!
There is no school at MPGS or MPHS tomorrow, November 3, due to additional/compounded water issues. Parents/Guardians/Students should check their email for more details.
The boys home game for tonight has been moved to New Berlin.
Unfortunately, we are cancelling school for Thursday, November 2 (tomorrow), due to the water main break. This decision is based on the most current information from the water company.
There will be no athletic practices or home athletic events either.
An attempt will be made to reschedule the boys junior high basketball game. The coach will send out information as it is available.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Currently the city of Mt. Pulaski is under a boil order due to a water main break. At this time we still plan to be in session tomorrow, barring any further problems.
Please send a water bottle with your child tomorrow if possible. There will also be bottled water made available in each building.
Please contact your building principal with any questions or concerns when the offices re-open tomorrow.

This quarter, MPGS staff members have been "shouting out" great things about their co-workers. When you come in tonight and tomorrow for parent/teacher conferences, we'd like for you to "shout out" your child's teachers and staff members. Look for the table when you come into the school building. There will be examples of what to write and all the materials needed for you will be waiting for you. Fill out as many as you would like for your child's teachers or any staff member. Be sure to check out the shout outs that are already outside the classroom doors and see how awesome our staff at MPGS is!!

RED RIBBON WEEK at MPGS 10/23-10/27
MPGS families are amazing! We have over 200 people signed up to attend Donuts with Grown-ups!
On Tuesday morning, we will have donuts and activities in the gym and the book fair in the learning center. In order to be as efficient as possible at the book fair, we are encouraging all families to utilize the E-wallet or bring cash. With either of these methods of payment, families can make a pile of books, leave their students name and teacher name, and the purchases can be processed later, with any change being sent home with the student.
Please try to park on the side streets or in the parking lot to the north of the building. Avoid parking in front of the building and on the south side parking. Please come directly into the gym and we will send groups to the library to shop for books.
