MLC will host a new student info night and tour for all new students that will be attending MLC in the 2022/2023 school year. This is for students that have received confirmation of being selected for the lottery to attend MLC for Kindergarten-12th grade. The event will take place from 4:00-5:00pm on May 31st on site at MLC. Kindergarten families and students will go straight into the kindergarten classroom to meet with teacher Sarah and hear more about what kindergarten looks like at MLC. All other families/students in grades 1-12 will come to the auditorium for the first half hour and then there will be two Q & A sessions and two tours running from 4:30-4:45 and 4:45-5:00pm.

We look forward to meeting you and showing you around your new school!

MLC's Electives are hands-on, activity focused classes that introduce students in the 1st-8th grades to new topics, information, and learning experiences while at the same time giving caring adults and older students the chance to share their talents, passions and interests.

Dear PPS families,

These opportunities are for students of all ages and include academic support, credit completion for high school students, enrichment activities, and culturally specific learning experiences. These programs are offered by our community partners and this catalog lists programs by each community partner. We also posted these opportunities on this website, where you can search listings by school and subject.

Dear PPS families,

This year our 2022 summer programs are set to begin as early as June 21. The $15m program is the most robust summer programming package in PPS and state history.

Dear PPS Community,

Earlier this year, the PPS School Board unanimously adopted one of the most aggressive school district climate crisis response policies in the nation.

We are now looking for PPS students and members of our community to join the district’s efforts to cut greenhouse gas emission in half by 2030 and make other meaningful progress on important sustainability initiatives.

Dear PPS Community,

As images have emerged of the 19 fourth-grade students and their teachers killed at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, they break my heart. As a parent and educator, hearing of this latest tragedy brings up heavy emotions for me. I share the grief and anger at the death of innocent children and selfless educators. This is a tragic and senseless act, and I keep each of the victims’ families in my heart.
