📢The MGS Foundation for Educational Excellence is thrilled to share that the trustees have reviewed the teacher fall mini-grant requests... and.. ALL REQUESTS WERE APPROVED totaling over $36,000!! The teachers and students at MGS will benefit immensely from all the new technologies, equipment, and programs headed their way. This historic approved amount could not have happened without the incredible support of our village from local business sponsorships, community donations, and parent participation. What a great time to be a Redbird! ❤️🤍🖤
Mrs. Lelm's students participated in mock interviews for multiple career paths as part of their elective class. Thank you to all the volunteers who made this experience possible!
