Tuesday was the last day of school, but a different sort of last day than ever before. Supply Drop Offs were held at both school locations to return text books, library books, chromebooks, etc. With a swing on the usual in school Fun Day, MPS teachers, staff, and PTA provided a Drive Thru Party. With enthusiasm, the MPS Tiger, inflatables, bubbles, and super soakers, many pictures came out like the one below. Let's just say it was that good of a party. Sixth graders can pick up their big head decorations that lined the driveway at any time.
