My Project

It's almost 2025 and our library looks amazing thanks to your generosity and support. As we move forward into the new year, we are ready for the next step in our beautification project.

Help our library look its best with end panel signs, simple backstops, and bookshelf dividers.

These items will help our collection be more inviting and easier to browse for students. We're always getting new up-to-date, high interest, inclusive titles. Please help us get our shelves ready for the new arrivals.

The MPA Library is the heart of our community school. With your help, we can make it look its best.
