Last night MPHS FCCLA had our first chapter meeting!

Superintendent Lamkey has a request for all of our community to help bridge our past to our future. He is looking for photos of past community school buildings (Elkhart Grade & High Schools, Mt. Pulaski Grade & High Schools, as well as Chestnut, Lake Fork & Cornland Schools. Depending on what pictures are available, we hope to incorporate the old pictures in the construction. If you have pictures available for reproduction or possibly to loan, please contact Superintendent Lamkey at 217-792-7221 or at flamkey@mtpulaski.k12.il.us.

This past week I was able to get a new set of tool storage cabinets assembled and installed in the shop’s new storage room. They look great and should help keep everything much more organized. Many thanks to the custodial staff that leant a helping hand!

Bye bye portable building. We had some good times!

Way to represent MPHS, Rylan Lindley!
