The entire staff at Mupu Elementary School is to be commended for the amazing dedication, professionalism, endurance, and teamwork this past month in the face of covid! The staff consists of 8 teachers, 3 instructional assistants, an office manager, and custodian.(Thirteen staff members in total) Four teachers, the secretary, one instructional assistant, and the custodian were out ill! Yep, only seven staff members left to keep the school running and teaching and learning continued!  The staff worked together to teach all the students, provide lunches, supervise the grounds, empty trash cans, clean, and cover the office.  We had wonderful parents volunteer to help with crossing guard duty and recess supervision. The teachers filled out independent study forms and gathered essential work for over 300 days of absences in January!  Mupu teachers and staff are truly the "DREAM TEAM" and  seem to have "Super Powers!".  It has been my pleasure to be their Interim Superintendent / Principal and work right along side them also teaching in classrooms!
Thank you Mupu Staff!

HUGE shout out to all the staff and the principal of this school. My kids feel safe, happy, and appreciated here. Every single staff member at this school has gone above and beyond for the students. During this difficult time, they have showed there is nothing they wouldn't do for the students. The office staff is amazing with giving notices and answering questions. The principal is an amazing part of the school. She works hard juggling and overseeing every issue, and putting the kids first. Big shout out to the health nurse for handling the safety and well being of the children. All the teachers are amazing and deserve alot of appreciation. Also thanks to the ladies in the cafeteria prepping and providing food everyday for every student. Also the custodians for having the biggest job of cleaning/sanitizing. Not to mention handling every issue that comes up that's not too fun of a job to do. Another great person to mention is the counselor. So much work to help the kids who have had a hard time through all this. Thanks to all the support staff for all the hours of work.  To the noon aides for watching over and keeping an eye out on the children. Safety has always been important and they get the job done. Big shout out to the one who always makes the kids happy on special days. Going above what the job description is and making it fun for the kids. Also shout out to the librarian for always being available with reading materials for the students. Another shout out to the PE teacher for making it fun for the kids to be active. Thanks speech teachers, reading teachers and all support staff. Super job Grace Thille staff keep up the good work and thanks for everything you do for the students.

This year has presented challenges we never saw coming, you have been there each step of the way, leading, listening, and sharing and guiding. The partnership is real! Beyond that, though, watching you bring light into darkness has been especially inspiring! Your students are ALL so lucky to be in your class. Thank you for always going the extra mile!
