Dropoff times for the shingleton riders could be delayed 30 minutes or more depending on the number of riders.
Homecoming in Mustang Country!
What a wonderful Homecoming celebration! From the Homecoming Parade, creative class floats, and Homecoming Court to Mrs. Gaunt’s MSHS Band, fire trucks, police cars, and an amazing community turnout, Mustang spirit was everywhere!
A huge THANK YOU to Peoples State Bank for providing the tailgate party! We appreciate your generosity and continued support of our students, families, and Mustang community.

Congratulations to our head librarian Lisa Cromell for being awarded the Upper Peninsula Region of Library Cooperation 2026 Suzanne Dees Lifetime Achievement Award for her outstanding contribution and leadership!!
Small routines make a big difference!
Keep a consistent bedtime, pack backpacks (and library books!) the night before, and build a morning routine that works for your family.
These simple habits help students arrive ready to read, ready to learn, and ready to succeed. Let's make Every Day Count!

Remembering September 11: A Lesson of Hope & Resilience
Today, our Mather 4th grade classes participated in a meaningful, age-appropriate lesson recognizing September 11. Students watched a documentary created specifically for children and read The Survivor Tree, the true story of a Callery pear tree discovered in the rubble at Ground Zero and later restored to health.
Through the story, students explored themes of hope, resilience, remembrance, and coming together during difficult times. They then painted their own representations of the Survivor Tree, which will soon be displayed in our Mather hallways.
We are proud of the thoughtfulness and respect our 4th graders demonstrated throughout this important lesson. Thank you to Mrs. Kelto, Ms. Martin, and Mr. Nachazel for creating such a meaningful learning experience for our Mustangs.
