Page: MPH students-Leave Your Mark at MPH  Deadline Friday! For just $25, your middle school student can create a tile that will last for years to come...Make your Mark on the MPH-8th Grade Tile Project. Important Message from Mr. Gomes: MPH 8th Grade Legacy Tile Wall in Foyer. Dear 8th Grade Families,  There are only a handful of moments in a student's journey that truly last forever, and this is one of them. At MPH, we've proudly brought back a tradition that has meant so much to generations of students: the 8th Grade Legacy Tile Wall. Each participating student paints a personalized tile with their name and 8th-grade year, and it becomes a permanent part of our school, displayed in the foyer for years to come.  This isn't just a craft project, it's a belonging. A statement of "I was here! I mattered!"
Former students regularly come back, years later, just to find their tile. They bring friends, siblings, and their own kids one day. That small square becomes a lasting connection to their time at MPH. Right now, your child has the opportunity to be part of that story. A lasting TILE that states they were part of MPH for all to see.
Don’t miss out on this special opportunity & lasting memory!
