Public Schools Week 2026 is here! 🎉

Public Schools Week is a reminder that public education is about more than buildings or classrooms—it’s about people.

Public education represents opportunity, belonging, and the shared commitment to ensure every child has the chance to learn, grow, and succeed.

It is made possible by the dedication of our amazing Mustang teachers and staff who inspire students each day, and by the families and caregivers who support and champion their children’s education.

Join us as we celebrate the people, partnerships, and possibilities that make public schools the heart of our community. ❤️

Bus Driver Appreciation Day!
Wednesday, February 18th, 2026
Through frigid winters and warm, sunny days—across gravel roads and multi-lane highways, from early mornings to late evenings—we recognize and honor the thousands of professional school bus drivers across Minnesota who safely transport nearly 700,000 students to and from school and school-related activities.

At Mora Public Schools, our bus drivers provide an invaluable service to both our students and our community. They are entrusted each day with the safety of dozens of children and play an integral role in student success and achievement. Often bookending a student’s school day, our drivers become familiar, trusted, and important figures in our children’s lives.

We deeply appreciate our school bus drivers and recognize the vital contributions they make to public education and to the safety and well-being of our students.

📣 Parents and Guardians - We need your help!

💙 Our students have various reasons for leaving school during the day. Most of the reasons are communicated in advance, but increasingly, they are last-minute requests.

✨Please help us out by letting the high school office know as far in advance as possible! We need to hear from a parent or guardian to sign your student out of school, and we want to make it as smooth as possible for everyone.

⏰ Last-minute requests are difficult to execute as they disrupt the classroom.

📞 320-679-6200 (24-hour attendance line)

📝 Write a note and have your student turn it in at the MHS office

Hello Mustang Families,

Mora Public Schools would like to inform you that over the next several weeks, our district will be conducting bus driver training sessions during the school day to help prepare new and prospective drivers.

You may notice district school buses out and about during the day making unscheduled “mock stops” as part of this training process. Please know these are planned practice sessions—not regular bus routes.

We kindly ask for your patience and understanding as our new drivers gain experience and confidence behind the wheel. These trainings are a normal and important part of onboarding new staff to ensure student safety and high-quality transportation services.

Thank you for your continued support of Mora Public Schools and our Transportation Department!
