PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that a Special Meeting of the Mason Public Schools Board of Education, for the purpose of 31AA Funding Resolution, is scheduled for November 24, 2025, starting at 6:30 p.m.
The preschool playground at the Harvey Education Center (HEC) has a new visitor- The Very Hungry Caterpillar!
Three teachers, Krystal Hodge, Jena Krumm and Stacey Somerville, wanted to jazz up the play area used by their students and create something functional as well as decorative at the same time.
Working with the Mason Middle School Unified Club advisor, a plan began to emerge to develop an outdoor area with a chalkboard surface for the students to write on during recess.
On November 4, 2025, Mason community members voted on a zero-tax-rate increase bond proposal, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated in the election.
The successful passage of the 2025 bond proposal will allow Mason Public Schools (MPS) to move forward with several major projects. These include extensive renovations to Mason Middle School, updates to the Mason High School auditorium and the construction of a new transportation facility.
“This vote is a strong statement of support from the Mason community for our schools,” said MPS Superintendent Dr. Gary Kinzer. “We are thankful for the ongoing trust of our community, and we look forward to sharing our progress as transparency will remain a key part of this process.”
In the months ahead, the district will share updates and progress reports to keep families and community members informed every step of the way.
The state school aid budget, signed in October, included continued funding for free meals for all public school students. This means all Mason Public Schools students will continue to receive free breakfast and lunch for the remainder of the school year with no changes or interruptions to meal service.
A reminder, while meals are free, students must purchase milk (when sold separately from a meal), any a la carte items and extra main entrees. Please check your student’s lunch account often to ensure adequate funds are available for these purchases. If you have questions about lunch options or adding money to your student’s account, contact the Food Services office 517.676.6529. A list of a la carte pricing is available on the Food Service website.
Mason Public Schools (MPS) is accepting applications from parents and other community members interested in serving on the Sex Education Advisory Board, a required committee made up of district stakeholders who review the sex education program, establish goals and make recommendations, as necessary, to the MPS Board of Education.
