Thank you for your service to our nation—and for the continued service you give to our students, staff, and community each day.

Impromptu 4th Grade Adventure!
Friday, November 7
Mrs. Kelto’s and Mrs. Martin’s 4th graders had an unexpected and unforgettable learning experience this past Friday! Our students took a quick impromptu field trip to watch a Great Lakes freighter in action — a perfect real-world connection to their studies on Michigan, shipping, and the maritime industry.
The excitement was high as students observed the size, power, and operations of a working freighter up close. What an amazing opportunity to connect classroom learning with the incredible natural and economic resources right here in our community!

Halloween at Mather Elementary!
What a spooktacular day! The weather held out perfectly for our Halloween Parade, and we couldn’t have asked for a better morning. A huge thank you to Mrs. Gaunt and the 8th Grade Band for their phenomenal performance—their festive tunes were the perfect treat after students had showed off their creative costumes!
Our 1st and 2nd graders brought extra smiles to the community with a special visit to the Manor, where they shared Halloween cheer with residents.
Throughout the day, classrooms were filled with laughter, crafts, games, and plenty of treats. And of course—the Minions (and Gru!) seemed to invade Mather with mischief and fun!
Thank you to our staff, families, and volunteers for making today’s celebration so memorable. Our Mustangs sure know how to make Halloween a treat!
Remember to Stay Safe while Trick or Treating tonight!!

Thank You, Munising Rotary Club!
We are incredibly grateful to the Munising Rotary Club for their generous donation of document cameras to Mather Elementary! These tools are already making a big impact in our classrooms — helping students share their thinking, explain their work, and learn from one another.
Our 4th graders are pictured here using the document camera to demonstrate their math assignments and explain how they solved their problems.
