Reminder through May 1st MGS will be collecting aluminum pop tabs! You can help us make a difference by collecting pop tabs. Tell family, friends, co-workers and everyone else that you are collecting pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House. Turn-in the pop tabs in zip-lock bags to your homeroom teacher. Each MGS classroom will have their own 5 gallon bucket for collections! Let’s see how fast we can fill the classroom’s bucket up! All area schools are competing for bragging rights on which school collects the most for the Ronald McDonald House! Schools include: MGS, GHMS, MTHS, and St. Mary's.
