MP Profile
Meet Deborah Miller. She is married to Michael and they have four children, Lauren (26), Kenny (23), Matt (18), and Evan (13). She is our school's registrar, and has worked at MP since 2013. She has worked in our school system since 2010. To her, the best part about her job is "working with the students, and helping them solve problems." In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her family. If she did not have to sleep, she would spend more time at the beach with her family. When people come to her for help, they usually need information about their academic needs, college information, and so forth. Her husband, Michael, inspires her to be "the Best of Me."

Bulldog Blessings
Adopt-A-Senior 2018 is a new program sponsored by the Bulldog Blessings.
Senior year is expensive, and we're asking our local organizations, groups and citizens to chip in and adopt some of our seniors who are in need of support. Our goal is that ALL MP Grads experience the full memory of their senior year and don't have to skip out on any activities due to cost.

Attention Seniors
The FAFSA® is the application that students must complete to apply for federal student aid, which can be used to attend an eligible college or career school. Federal student aid includes Federal Pell Grants, federal student loans, and work-study opportunities. In addition to determining eligibility for federal student aid, many states, private organizations, colleges, and career schools rely on information from the FAFSA to determine eligibility for nonfederal sources of aid.
ALL students must complete this form regardless of parent income. The 2018 FAFSA application is now open.
