2022 Spring Trap Team Meeting - 6:30pm on March 7th

Girls Basketball - Senior Spotlight - Vanessa Leukam

Congratulations to 7th Graders Ella Klaphake & Avery Braegelmann on being the first ever members of the 10,000 shot club. These girls have put in a ton of time improving their game in the off-season, with Ella making over 10,000 shots, and Avery making over 25,000! Hopefully, more girls will follow their lead in the upcoming years! We are very lucky to have both of these committed athletes in our programs.

On a cold February day, we would like to take this opportunity to thank our bus drivers.
They do an outstanding job in safely transporting our students even on these coldest days to school in the morning and returning them to their homes at the end of the day.
Having driven a school bus in my first years of teaching, I understand the important role they play in our schools.
On behalf of Melrose Area Public Schools and our communities, thanks again to all of our bus drivers!
Greg Winter, Superintendent
Melrose Area Schools
