The PHS Class of 1974 recently made a donation to the MVR-III Safety Net program. They had a surplus following their 50-year reunion and donated the remaining funds to help the next generation of MVR-III students who may have a need. "On behalf of the PHS Class of 1974, we are pleased to present a donation to Safety Net to support the needs of the District’s Students. Best wishes for a successful school year." - PHS Class of 1974 Fifty-Year Reunion Planning Committee. #MVNation

Robertsville Elementary students had to persevere and work together in front of the whole school to find their own balloon. This activity became a powerful symbol of our community core values. The balloons represented HAPPINESS, and students learned it's much harder to find if everyone is only looking out for themselves. If we care for other people's happiness, we'll find ours, too! #MVNation
