Important Message from the Superintendent
Message from the Superintendent on Health and Safety at our Schools: As we close the second full week of instruction, I wanted to express how excited we are to return to in person instruction and how proud I am of our school community's efforts to return to school safely. Your child's health and well being is our top priority, and I want to update you on our current health mitigation efforts, as well as increased support we are working to provide in the coming weeks.

The school year is off to a great start and it has been wonderful to see students and staff back on campuses across the district.

Please find information related to COVID-19 protocols while in MPUSD schools and departments.
