Friday, December 12 was the annual “Ham Day” in MPISD where all staff members are traditionally gifted a Christmas ham. But this year, instead of ham, MPISD staff members received “dough.” Superintendent Judd Marshall and his wife Courtney, Assistant Superintendent Craig Bailey, Director of Facilities Van Bowen, and Board of Trustees members Juan Duenez and Yvonne Hampton were on hand passing out Christmas greetings and the surprise. The MPHS and MPJH choirs also made appearances to sing carols for staff members as they drove through.

MPISD will be closed from Monday, December 22 – Friday, January 2. Staff will return for a staff development day on Monday, January 5. Classes will resume for 2nd semester on Tuesday, January 6.
