Five Mason Middle School (MMS) 8th graders were honored for their submissions to the Growing Libraries with Representation project.

Congratulations to the winners, Mckelvy Brown, Miriam Omans, Sophia Le, Hayven Jayne and Maria Sutberry!

Thank you to the more than 1,000 Mason residents who completed the District Needs Survey in January! Your feedback is very important. 

It helps Mason Public Schools better understand the community’s support and priorities create our shared vision for the future. The Bond Steering Committee will use the survey results, along with district needs assessments and facility studies, to help finalize the Bond proposal. View the survey results and learn more about the planning process on the Bond website.
