Announcements
Allergy Alert
To protect students with severe allergies, Harvey has nut-restricted classrooms and is a seafood/shellfish-free building. Please do not send peanut, tree nut, shellfish or fish products for snacks or classroom activities. Nut products may be brought for lunch only, which is eaten in the cafeteria.
Common items to avoid include Caesar dressing, imitation crab, Worcestershire sauce, and foods made with fish oils. Always check labels.
Thank you for helping us keep all students safe.
Free Breakfast and Lunch for Students Extended Through School Year
The state school aid budget, signed in October, included continued funding for free meals for all public school students. This means all Mason Public Schools students will continue to receive free breakfast and lunch for the remainder of the school year with no changes or interruptions to meal service.
A reminder, while meals are free, students must purchase milk (when sold separately from a meal), any a la carte items and extra main entrees. Please check your student’s lunch account often to ensure adequate funds are available for these purchases. If you have questions about lunch options or adding money to your student’s account, contact the Food Services office 517.676.6529. A list of a la carte pricing is available on the Food Service website.
Address Changes
Student home address changes must be made by contacting building secretaries or Central Office. Please contact your student's building secretary with questions or to request a change
