MPHS Study Halls are competing in a Christmas Door Decorating Contest! My study hall decided to go with a Christmas Vacation theme.

The Woods I projects are getting close to completion, and they all look great! Some students chose to build a clock & mirror, while others are making footstools. Nice work, Woods I classes!

Supporting your child’s education means more than just computer troubleshooting. In particular, parents and caregivers have faced challenges when it comes to fostering social emotional learning (SEL) while still supporting traditional academic learning. The LTC SPARK program has created a self-paced course for parents & caregivers. In this course, written by SEL educator and coach Abby Lyons, participants will learn how to develop learning spaces at home, support student engagement, and encourage self-regulation. Parents and caregivers will also walk away from this course with the skills needed to manage their own social emotional well-being – no matter what challenges remote learning throws at them. Sign up for “Parenting in a Pandemic” today and begin working toward completing this engaging new course at your own pace.

As a reminder, there is no school for students this Wednesday (11/25). This is a Remote Planning Day for teachers. Additionally, there is no school on Thanksgiving (11/26) or this Friday (11/27). Enjoy your Thanksgiving break. Remember to be safe - wash up, mask up, and follow social distancing recommendations.

The Building Construction class was been making steady progress on our shed project. Most of the walls are framed, and today we get the deck of the floor installed.

The Woods I classes have done an awesome job on their projects this semester. They’ve put a ton and pride into their work, and I can’t wait to see the final product when they’re all done.

Thank you to all students and parents who have contributed supplies to our School Store!
