Bring A Friend Day is a fantastic way for those outside our immediate community to experience firsthand who we are and what it is like to be student at Mounds Park Academy! On Friday, November 30, we are inviting students in grades one through nine to bring a friend to MPA for a special day of learning and fun!<\/p>\n
The invited friend should be near the same grade as your child and each child may only bring one friend. Space is very limited by grade level.\u00a0Please have the family of the visiting friend register online at moundsparkacademy.org\/bringafriend<\/a> by Friday, November 23.<\/p>\n On the day of the visit, if possible, please help the visiting family with transportation to\/from school. Visiting students are welcome to ride MPA buses, but not District 622 buses. Bus passes may be obtained from the Office of Admission.\u00a0Visitors and their hosts should check-in together at the South Entrance at 7:45 AM.<\/p>\n Visitors will follow a typical school schedule, attending all of the regular classes with their friend. Teachers will take the time to introduce visitors in each class and help them feel welcome.\u00a0Lunch will be provided, or the friend may bring a bag lunch.\u00a0The day ends at 3 PM in cafeteria and does not include after school care or activities.<\/p>\n
