Thank you to Superior Roofing for the generous donation of a new roof on this building. I went up to Mustang Stadium about 12:30 today to catch the roofing crew in action and the job was already done....WOW! Also a big thank you to Tom Bray for all of his summer painting efforts, Ed Juranek for cleaning things, Rick Mulye for keeping everything running, and Mike Saberniak of UP Scapes for taking care of the grass and field lines. The Stadium looks great and we are eager to host our first home game at 7:00pm on Friday, September 2nd versus Newberry. We are proud of our Mustang Community :-)

Hello from 411 Elm!
Dear Munising Middle/High School Families,
It is with great excitement that I write this letter of introduction to you as the new Principal and Athletic Director of Munising Middle/High School. I am honored to have the opportunity to work in these new positions at a school where I have personally spent my life learning as both a student and an educator. It has been my dream for many years to be a leader in this building because of my deeply ingrained passion for its students, staff, and supportive community.
As a lifelong resident of Munising and former student, then secretary, coordinator, coach, and teacher at Munising Middle/High School, my understanding of our students’ and staffs’ values and needs are clear. It is my goal to help our school reach its full potential. I look forward to working with many of our students again and meeting and getting to know those I have not worked with in the past. I want to make each and every student and staff member feel like a valued part of Stang Nation throughout the school year and create a culture of understanding and respect.
As this is my second positional change in the district in the past two years, I promise to continue to work as hard as possible to grow as an educational leader for Munising Middle/High School. I believe my past experiences in the district and in education will allow me to be a valued asset to your student’s educational process. As a parent of two school-aged children myself, I know that being a part of their education is important. I continue to believe in a team approach when it comes to reaching educational goals. I plan to work with you as a valued partner to ensure your child's success. I hope that through collaboration and teamwork between staff, students, and parents, we can make your student’s experience here the very best it can be.
In closing, please know that my door is always open to you. I truly welcome your conversation and positive input. If we keep our students the primary focus of our work, I know together we will be able to celebrate many successes here at Munising Middle/High School! I look forward to working with you soon!
Sincerely,
Nicole Lasak
Principal and Athletic Director
Munising Middle/High School
THANK YOU MUNISING!
