Good Evening Mariposa Families,
Due to current information and working in collaboration with County partners, all Mariposa County Unified School District (MCUSD) school sites will observe a 2-hour delay, tomorrow, Wednesday, November 9, 2022, to allow for anticipated road conditions to resolve and allow for the safe travel of students and staff.
