How Do You Like Them Apples?
They LOVE them! The kindergarten class loved working with the September FARM Crate! The topic of the lessons for the month were Michigan apples. Thanks Dan Lee at Farm Bureau Insurance!!!



YOUR EAGLE SPIRIT MASK ORDERS ARE IN!
If you ordered a mask through MPACT's Eagle Spirit Mask Sale, it is here. Please check in with the person you ordered from. If you turned your mask order in at the elementary school, it will be coming home with students.
THANK YOU for supporting MPACT, our sports teams, our school and our community with this sale. Stay Safe and GO EAGLES!!
