Here Comes the Bus
Here Comes The Bus (HCTB) is a helpful new app that MGSD is using to help all bus-riding families get more information on their child's transportation to and from school. HCTB will help parents to:
See the location of your child’s bus both before and after school
Confirm that your child’s bus has arrived at the bus stop, at school or both;
Get information on substitute buses, or when we have important information to relay;
Allow for MMS to communicate any delays or changes to your child's middle school bus routes during the day;
Receive email notifications OR push notifications to iPhone / Android devices.
MMS is looking for ALL bus-riding families to sign up for and use HCTB before October 1st. Please use this document for account set-up assistance, or email Mr. Kosal or Ms. McGrath at MMS to get more information.
Picture Retake Day
MMS Make-up Picture Day is scheduled for Tuesday, September 21, 2021.

Fall is upon us and there is plenty going on at the Mooresville Public Library. The teen department has re-opened its in-person volunteer program, Teens Give Back. We will continue to offer virtual volunteer hours as well. Further information for teens interested in volunteering for the library can be found on our teen page Here.
