In addition to core classes of language arts, science, math, and social studies, we are proud to offer students elective coursework in physical education & health, band, reading, choir, art, family and consumer science, literature in film, yearbook, academic assistance, literature, and pop culture.

Principal’s Pad
March 5, 2010
Principal’s Pad – Next week we have a couple special treats. On Wednesday, March 10, we will be having our Blue Ribbon Day to recognize all of the students who have not received a referral this trimester. They will have some choices of activities to participate in that should be pretty fun. If a student has received a referral during this trimester, they will be in a study hall for that period of time. Thursday, March 11, we will have one of the Clam Bake Jazz Bands performing for our students and Madison students in our gym. It will be nice to have our neighbor elementary school visit for this event.
It has been a challenging time for many of our eighth graders. While it’s exciting to get ready and plan for the next four years at MHS, it can be a bit overwhelming to forecast their schedules and think about the next four years. We’ve extended the forecasting until next Thursday to give our teachers a bit more time to work with the eighth graders with their forecasting.
Also, I’d like to thank all of our classified employees. While I appreciate the hard work they do every day, this has been classified employee week, so a special thank you is appropriate. These are wonderful folks who make our school run well. If you run into one of our classroom assistants, secretaries, custodians, bus drivers, cooks, etc., please thank them for the great work that they do with our students.
Thanks and have a great weekend,
Dale Inskeep
