♫♫ MPS School Council Casino
Mountain Park School’s Casino Fundraiser is coming up on December 11 & 12 at the Deerfoot Inn & Casino, and we need your help to make it a success!
This event plays a huge role in enhancing the learning experience for all MPS students, and it’s a fun way to connect with our amazing school community.

♫♫♫ Bottle Drive
Keep your bottles! We will be having a bottle Drive on January 3rd, 1:00 pm-4:00 pm. Bottles can be dropped off at the trailer outside the school at this time or contact us to pick up.
We know this is the end of Winter Break but we are hoping to have a good turnout to get those holiday empties. To sign up to drive or help us track attendance, fill in form HERE.
♫ Jazz Band
Tuesdays at lunch and Fridays at 8:00am. Everyone welcome!
♫ Volunteers Needed!
All of the off-site workshops in the band program require volunteers. We are planning day and overnight workshops for the 2025-2026 year. Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents are all welcome to volunteer, as long as they have Security Clearance. Please contact the front office at 403-777-6442 or email MPS Admin at mpsmpsmusic@gmail.com for more information.
