Some of our Seniors are enjoying the new space during their speech class.
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!
The Hot Spot order is going in today! If you haven't registered, we need to know if you need a hot spot, if your student will attend remotely or in-person, if your student intends to purchase lunch/breakfast daily, and if your child needs transportation. You can email your answers to these questions to hfricke@mtpulaski.k12.il.us. You can also call the grade school office (since the HS doesn't have phones) at 217-792-7220. We need this information ASAP!
Also, you will still need to visit the correct office to turn in registration paperwork.
Just waiting on furniture and students!

MPHS Soccer Open Fields Set to Begin Tomorrow! This is a FANTASTIC way to check out if soccer is for you (no commitment/no pressure). We will only meet Monday this week (5:30-7:00pm), as coach is leaving town Tuesday. We will resume again the following week (meeting Mon, Tues, and Thurs evenings at 5:30-7:00). These days and times may change down the road to accommodate schedules better. While these are not required practices, they are very important for both recruits and returning players Please make every effort to attend. Players, your parents will need to fill out a release form (which I will try to get you early, but will also have at the field). Bring water. If you are unable to attend but interested, or if you have any other questions - email coach: rsiebert@mtpulaski.k12.il.us
