[May 14, 2018]  MOUNT PULASKI  - On Tuesday evening, Mount Pulaski High School hosted its annual awards night for the students. Teachers, administrators, students, family and friends all came together for an evening of celebrating the accomplishments of some fine young people.

The night was a wonderful opportunity for the community to see the fine young people that are a part of the community. We wish all the best to the graduating seniors as they move on to the next chapter of their lives.

We also look forward to seeing more great things as we watch the students from other classes grow and excel!
