Iron Coyoye 2026









This week, we proudly celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week — a time to recognize the heart, dedication, and impact of the incredible educators who make our school such a special place.
Every day, our teachers go above and beyond to inspire curiosity, encourage growth, and support each student both inside and outside the classroom. Their passion shapes futures, builds confidence, and creates a community where everyone can thrive.
To all of our teachers: thank you for your patience, your creativity, and your unwavering commitment to our students. Your work does not go unnoticed, and we are truly grateful for everything you do.
Let’s take a moment this week to show our appreciation — whether it’s a kind note, a thank-you message, or simply sharing your gratitude.

I am so blessed and honored to be the principal at MPHS! And, they know me so well...a gift with all of my favorite things! The best part, the thoughtful hand written notes from students and staff. There is no better school around! Small town, big hearts, great people....that's us. Thank you to everyone for the "Principal's Day" gifts and notes. Love all my Toppers!
