Frontline Mission Food Drive
We are currently participating in a green bean food drive supporting Frontline Mission. We are competing against other local schools so bring in as many cans of green beans as you can before March 31 to help us win! This is a great cause that will directly help local families. The class that brings in the most cans will win a fun surprise.
Yearbook Photos
If you have taken pictures around the school or at a school event and would like to submit them for potential use in the yearbook, please send them to Mrs. Gerkin at brooke.gerkin@matsuk12.us.
