The Mt. Pulaski School District is keeping the Chatham community in our thoughts during this difficult time. We are standing with them and sending strength, support, and care to all those affected. We ask that MPGS students and staff wear red tomorrow (Thursday, May 1) to show our support for Chatham and to stand together in solidarity. We will also be doing Caps for a Cause tomorrow with the proceeds going to the Chatham Community. Please bring a dollar to wear a cap.
