Local School Board Elections Matter.
Paul “Biff” Hansen, a current member of the MPSD School Board, has filed candidacy papers to seek re-election to the MPSD School Board. Fellow incumbent Christopher Able also declared his candidacy for the Spring Election. Best of luck to both Biff and Chris!

Why do some people use the phrase “Happy Holidays”? December is celebrated by many different religions and cultures—Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Zoroastrian, African American, pagan, and more. Using “Happy Holidays” acknowledges this diversity and helps everyone feel included and respected.
