On Wednesday, October 13, 2021, grade 10 and 11 students have the opportunity to participate in the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT). Grade 10 students are expected to test and are automatically registered at no cost. Grade 11 students wishing to test should have pre-registered with School Counselor Mr. McCaffrey. Families with questions should contact their student’s counselor.    

Grade 10 and 11 students taking the PSAT on Wednesday, October 13, 2021, are expected to arrive to school by 7:05 a.m. prepared for testing. Test takers should head directly to their assigned testing location and bring a calculator and two #2 pencils. Students will be most prepared for testing by getting a good night’s sleep and eating a healthy breakfast. 

Students planning to take the PSAT should complete a practice test. All families are encouraged to view a brief video about SAT preparation and to sign up for Official SAT Practice from the College Board and Khan Academy at khanacademy.org/sat.

The MHS Annual Back to School Night for families of current MHS students will be held on Thursday, September 23, 2021, from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. To allow for social distancing, only one parent/guardian per student is invited to attend. Please remember that all guests are required to wear a mask. We ask that parents/guardians space out in classrooms and that they do not congregate in the building at any time.

Families will begin the evening by attending their student's block 1 class. Parents/guardians will then travel throughout the building to visit their student's teachers and learning spaces. During each ten minute classroom visit, teachers will share course expectations, discuss important information for student success, and provide methods for engaging in two-way communication throughout the school year. To prepare for Back to School Night, parents/guardians are asked to have a conversation with their student about the schedule below.
