MHS FAFSA Completion Project:
Seniors- Show proof to Mrs. Sims that you have completed your FAFSA and your name goes into a drawing for one of 40 $25 gift cards! It's that simple!
MHS students had fun exploring careers with hands-on activities at a health science college visit at State Fair Community College. SFCC offers 13 health programs, all of which you can use your A+ for!
Senior Parents and Students-
April 1st is Missouri's FAFSA priority deadline. Let us help you check that off your list!
It's always nice to have MHS alumni in the building! Thank you to Evan Weaver from Edward Jones for being our Cookies & Careers- Finance guest speaker today. Students learned about the business and finance path, classes and skills needed to be successful in this field.
If you are interested in taking the next National ACT test on April 13th, the registration deadline is quickly approaching on March 8th. If you have questions or need help registering, please see Mrs. Sims. Remember, fee waivers are available for those who qualify.
We had a great turn out for Cookies & Careers- Health Occupations with State Fair Community College. Students learned about the awesome opportunities that SFCC has for them to pursue their dreams in the healthcare field and bonus- they can use their A+!
During Mental Health Week MHS students heard from faculty member, Angie Keele, past alumni, Steven Sims, and expert, Josh Varner on stress management and mental health. As we move into 4th quarter we want to reminder our students that when life gets blurry, Adjust Your Focus!
Senior Parents-
For those who were not able to make our first FAFSA Frenzy event, we will be hosting a second FAFSA Frenzy on March 11th! Please join us at the SCCC Room 8 from 5-7.
Class of 2028 and Parents- Get Excited!! It's Freshman Orientation time! Please mark your calendars and plan to attend our Activity Fair and Freshman Orientation on March 6th. Meet coaches, sponsors, and learn about awesome opportunities that await you at MHS.
Here are details about our 4th annual tax night. If you received a W-2 for wages earned last year, we invite you to attend. We will help you file your taxes for free!! Tax night will be held in Mrs. Benitez's room (room 23) this Thursday, February 15th. You may come anytime between 3:30 and 5pm. Please see the flyer for details on what you should bring. You will also need to bring your computer.
Note: When you file your tax return, you will not be claiming yourself. You can still be claimed as a dependent by your parents or guardian. Filing your taxes does not affect your parent or guardian's taxes. If you have any questions about this, please let Mrs. Benitez know.
**In many cases students don't make enough to owe any taxes, so any amount that was withheld from your check for federal or state taxes could be returned to you.
Hope to see you there!

MHS celebrated Red Ribbon Week. We kicked off with an assembly from Next Gen. Through music and personal testimony they talked about living clean, authentic lives with a purpose. We also used the Safe & Sober Program focusing on alcohol, marijuana, vaping, and fentanyl.
MHS students interested in a career in health care were able to get on State Fair Community College's campus and check out their opportunities with hands-on activities. Many of the programs at SFCC are top ranked in our state!
