How We Start Our Day!
All students will be enrolled in an advisory classroom. This class starts every day, Monday- Friday at 7:45 am. Students will Google Meet with their advisory teacher and have time to "Take 5" . Check it the link for a visual reminder!
Distribution Days
These distribution sessions will be utilized for students and parents to receive resources, supplies and materials needed to support learning. Your student should watch Google Classroom and their Gmail for communications from their teachers that will indicate if a pick-up time is needed. Thank you and we look forward to continuing to work with you as we support the educational journey of every student.

In the full distance learning model, teachers will continue to take all attendance . Students and families will not be asked to log attendance. If your student is not able to attend their Google Meet please call the main office at 920.663.9570 to report the absence.

Counselor Corner
October is Bullying Prevention Month.
The best antidote for this is to encourage your child(ren) to be upstanders and say or do something when unkind things take place. Challenge yourself to speak out. Make kindness go viral and send any cool new random acts of kindness pictures to Ms Gleason at gleasonm@mpsd.school!
