Over the past 25+ years I have come to realize that the sprint toward the end of the school year is starting earlier and earlier. This year is no different. As you see in the Looking Ahead section of this post, there are a tremendous number of gatherings, activities, and events scheduled between now and the end of the year. I am excited to join you in celebrating student accomplishments as we make our way toward graduation, final exams, and the very special annual yearbook assembly.
Thank you, in advance, for all you do, as parents, friends, and supporters of each MPA Upper School student to work in partnership so they can experience the greatest amount of success.
I look forward to seeing you on campus soon,
Mark
