Go to the address below and click the ‘join the group’ button for access. You will need to set up a Yahoo account (if you don’t already have one). When you fill out the form to join the group, please let us know you are an MSD parent or guardian. We have to approve each membership. If we can’t figure out who you are, we will have to deny the request to join.
