🎉 Congratulations to Vivian Valiquette! 🎉
Mather Elementary is so proud to recognize Vivian Valiquette, a Kindergarten student in Mrs. VanLandschoot’s class, as the Ultimate Winner of our school-wide Rock, Paper, Scissors competition this past Friday! Vivian demonstrated exceptional sportsmanship, fair play, and perseverance throughout the competition, showing all of us the power of making respectful and responsible choices. Her positive attitude and dedication are an inspiration to her classmates and a wonderful example of our school’s values in action. Way to go, Vivian – keep up the amazing work!
Munising High School Spanish 2 Students engaged in a cultural food preparation project in class today as part of their preparation for a class trip to Costa Rica in March. The students all created different cuisines and invited staff to come in and sample the food and rate the different dishes on taste and authenticity. Although the students competed against each other, fun and learning was had by all and some staff members may have even put on a pound or two. The cost of their class trip to Costa Rica is significant, so any community individuals that would like to donate to help defray the costs of this great learning experience can contact mike.travis@mps-up.com for instructions as to how to contribute.
