💡DID YOU KNOW?💡

More than 74% of Mentor Public Schools' expenses go directly to the classroom. That inclues costs related to instruction as well as student and teacher support.

The district's priority is clear: Put our students first.

We can continue this by passing the levy on May 5.

Vote FOR Issue 1, and help us continue putting kids first.
