Math Problem of the Week and February Winner

There has been a menu change this week due to not having school on Thursday.
Here is Friday's new menu.
Here is Friday's new menu.

What an exciting time of year on the hilltop!
As most of you are aware, our High School Girls Basketball team punched its ticket to the IHSA Girls State Basketball Tournament last night by defeating Albion Edwards County, 48-38.
As a result, this week, on Thursday, March 5th, Mt. Pulaski School District students will not attend school. To provide as much support as possible for the girls, we encourage everyone to join us in Normal on Thursday morning at 10 a.m. to cheer them on. Thursday will be coded as a NIA (Not in Attendance) Day, and will be made up at the end of the school year with our final day of student attendance on May 21 instead of May 20.
Good Luck to the Hilltoppers, Coach McVickers, and his staff as we cheer them on at Illinois State University! We hope to see you there!
