Hello Mountaineer families,

We are in the beginning steps of applying for a multi-million dollar Safe Routes for School grant, which would help in funding much needed improvements for our sidewalks and streets surrounding our campus.

But we need your help!

Our parents/guardians are asked to participate in an anonymous survey. Parents/guardians- we would greatly appreciate your time by answering questions in the quick survey links provided below. Parents/guardians of students at multiple schools are asked to please complete the quick five minute survey for EACH school to help our response rates!

Thank you in advance for your participation and help in making this grant a possibility!

Earlier last month, Rebecca Krans with the Michigan State University Extension planted a butterfly garden for North Elementary School to enjoy and learn from! This garden will be registered as a Monarch Waystation as it will provide nectar and shelter for Monarch butterflies, as well as other important pollinators.

Showy goldenrod, New England aster, pale leaf woodland sunflower, grey headed coneflower, Joe pyeweed, early goldenrod, foxglove bearded tongue, bergamot, calico aster, pale purple coneflower, wild strawberry, butterfly weed, and Marsh blazing star were all planted to encourage pollinators to pollinate and take shelter. It may take a few years for it to grow, but once it does, it's going to be a very special place at North Elementary.

Thank you, Rebecca and the MSU Extension for your donations of materials and hard work to make this dream a reality!
