Meet Henry S., MPA’s Head of School for the Day! Henry is a fifth grader who loves solving challenging math problems and skiing on MPA’s Alpine Ski team. He spent the day exploring the many daily components of the school, from business in the Athletics Office to a tour of the school (including the roof and its solar panels).
To start the day, Henry greeted students arriving at school through the south entrance with Dr. Hudson. They were so delighted to see that their friend was in charge today!
He then visited the Communications and Marketing department, where collected some brand-new MPA swag and quickly mastered graphic design and photography in order to publish his own custom display screen on campus. He even starred in a promotional video that will be shown at the Spring Auction.
After that, he met everyone who works in the Business Office, learning the ins-and-outs of what happens behind the scenes at school. He had a lunch meeting in the Porter Conference Room with his fifth grade pals before meeting with the Academic Administration team, and then with Athletics to talk Alpine!
After his full day of meetings, the MPA maintenance team toured Henry through the entire campus, including rooms and parts of the building he had never ventured to before. He got to ride on the Gator and see campus from a birds-eye view on the roof with Mr. Kissner.
We had such a great time with Henry, and he had a blast, too! If this is an experience that your child would enjoy, you can bid on it at the Spring Auction! Tickets are still available at moundsparkacademy.org/springauction.
