Mason Middle School

The Mason Public Schools (MPS) Board of Education held a special meeting today to review Board Policy 7250.01 which outlines public memorials. 

Following a period of public comment, the Board of Education voted unanimously to suspend the policy for commencement tomorrow and allow empty chairs to be displayed at graduation in remembrance of two students, Amanda Blue and Lilian Klages, who passed in August 2023. The empty chairs will be placed at graduation with approval from their parents.

The board will revisit Policy 7250.01 at a future meeting. The community is encouraged to attend and engage in the public forum to provide input on policy changes prior to any final action.

During a community informational meeting on May 12, 2025, the School Bond Committee shared details about a proposed School Improvement Bond. The committee reviewed the outcomes of the 2017 bond, shared results of the January 2025 community survey, gave an overview of the proposed bond and provided additional details outlining how funds would be allocated.  

The proposed bond would be a zero mil increase School Improvement Bond expected to yield approximately $65 million dollars. If approved, the bond would fund major renovations at Mason Middle School, improvements and upgrades to the Mason High School auditorium, and a new transportation facility. It would also support technology enhancements and continued building updates across the district. 

Congratulations to the cast and crew of the North Aurelius production of Disney’s Aladdin Kids! The students presented the musical to their fellow students at North Aurelius and took to the stage in the Mason High School Auditorium for a community performance last week. Check out more photos from the production and the video on Facebook.

The project, presented in conjunction with the Wharton Center for the Performing Arts, gave students and staff support and guidance as they rehearsed and perfected the show. Students also had the opportunity to perform with all other participating schools, including Alaiedon Elementary students, at the Wharton Center.
