Welcome to Mount Pleasant High School
Mount Pleasant Oilers – EXCELLENCE – every day in every way!
Mrs. Busch, Principal's Office Secretary, enjoying a trip down the Chippewa River. She's been taking full advantage of the nice Michigan weather! Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Connecting with nature has proven to improve physical, mental and spiritual well-being. There have been studies showing that being in nature and sunshine for even 15 minutes a day can boost mood, lessen anxiety, increase creativity, and help you sleep better. Sounds like a win-win!
Keep being awesome Oilers!
We ❤️ Our Oilers!

Mr. Burnett, out new science teacher, has played music since he was in middle school. He’s been keeping busy by recording a song a day while we’ve been out of school. Our teachers have so many hidden talents!
He wanted to share his gratitude for the essential workers during this time so he wrote and recorded a song called, “The Essential Anthem”. Thanks for sharing! (Lyrics are in the comments)
Keep being awesome Oilers!

From Mr. Burnett: The Essential Anthem (Original Song) - I wrote this one this week while thinking of all of the essential workers that are living on the front lines. It is easy for us to sit at home and some people cannot even seem to do that correctly. This one is for all the health care workers, grocery store employees, truck drivers, food industry workers [from farm to store], and anyone else that I have not thought of at this time. I would like to say thank you! This one is written from my perspective of their perspective! I miss seeing everyone at school and I know that many of you may not know me too well because I was new to the staff this year. Everyone has been kind to me so far and I look forward to seeing you soon. Respectfully, Mr. Burnett PS Song Lyrics [Verse 1] Alarm clock ringin in my head Time to get outa bed Damn this new routine But theres alotta people counting on me Shuffle myself out the door A soldier in a new war A cog in the machine But theres alotta people counting on me [Chorus] No time to wonder why No time for me to cry Its time for empathy theres alotta people counting on me [Verse 2] The weight that I carry Noone could disagree I’m burdened unfaily But theres alotta people counting on me The hours fly by The lens magnify The pain and misery But theres alotta people counting on me [Verse 3] The storm keeps rollin in And I’m runnin in the wind With my integrity But theres alotta people counting on me So I will be strong Good times will come along Ya that’s a guarantee Cuz theres alotta people out there like me
Really good stuff Mr. Burnett, thanks! Bob Busch check out the new science teacher at MPHS-songwriter right up our alley.
