Congratulations to our MPHS Student of the Week, Jack Greiner! Jack was nominated by Mrs. McClellen, "He has been an incredibly strong leader this year in choir and drama. He has a great attitude in class and is an excellent role model for younger students. He has taken on more roles of leadership, and I very much appreciate all that he has accomplished in the last four years. He will be presenting his Senior Recital on March 23rd to showcase his talents in the fine arts." Great work, Jack! #mphawks

On January 11th, approximately 70 fifth grade students had their first ever band performance! Mr. Shawn Sandersfeld, their director, has been working with these students since the end of September. Fifth grade students are able to have weekly lessons with Mr. Sandersfeld, and meet as a large group once a week at the end of the school day. They have been working so hard and were very excited to perform for friends and family. It was an absolutely wonderful concert and the students were able to show off all their hard work. They are looking forward to their next performance on Tuesday, April 30th. What a great beginning for their instrumental music careers! #mphawks
