Great things are happening at Mather. The third grade students are participating in The Great Mail Race! They sent letters to 3rd grade classes in every US state enclosing information about our school and state and asking for other classes to share information about their schools and states. They hope to hear back from every state by the end of the school year
Our 4th grade joined neighboring schools on the Pictured Rocks Cruise yesterday! It was a beautiful sunny day for a field trip. A special thank you Mrs. Kelto and Ms. Martin for getting our Mather students out on the water! and Thank you Zach Boucher at PRC for making sure our students had fun learning while staying safe.
MR. COTEY'S ADVANCED CHEMISTRY STUDENTS enjoyed a hands-on lab last week as they learned about chemical equilibrium at Munising High School. Mr. Cotey does a nice job of making learning fun and this class is full of intelligent and hard working student leaders.
