Good afternoon Mustangs! Happy New Year! I hope you will take some time to reflect on the past semester and set some goals for this upcoming semester as well. Please remember a few things as we get ready to go back to school on Wednesday. First school attendance is important to your success. The F list and the at risk attendance list go hand in hand each week.It is very hard to learn and keep up on assignments when you are absent. If you miss more than 9 days in a semester then you are below the 90% standard that the state has set. Please try to make every effort to be at school when you are healthy. Second, tutoring is available M-Th after school. If you are struggling please plan to stay and get the extra help you need to help you be successful. Third, dress code. School is your job. Come dressed for success .Pajamas are not acceptable except on dress up days. If you need help finding acceptable clothing we have resources to help you. Just go see Mrs. Erica in room 303 and she will hook you up! I hope you have a great rest of your day and I am looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday when students return to school. ~ Mrs. Brewer
Good evening Mustangs! Going into this Thursday and Friday it looks like the weather could get serious. If you are in a situation where you have no heat and need resources please message the high school Facebook page and we will do our best to meet your need. We need to look out for each other so don't be afraid to reach out! Enjoy the rest of your evening!
If you need to pay for &/or pick up a pallet project you purchased you may do so at MCHS this week M-W between 7 AM and 1 PM. Come to the side door on the south side of the building and knock! Thank you for your support for our kids and their creativity!
Hey Mustangs! We are inviting you to the High School this week on March 1st or March 3rd for Spring Parent Contact Nights from 530-8PM. We will have dinner provided both nights. Chili and cinnamon rolls on the 1st and a sub sandwich bar on the 3rd. Come see your child's teachers and check on their academic progress this year. Ask questions about what classes they need for next year and get advice on what they should take. If you have a Senior, ask questions about graduation or about job placement or college admissions. For incoming Freshmen these are your enrollment nights. Anderson, Pineville and Rocky are on the 1st and SWC, Noel and White Rock are on the 3rd- both nights are in the PAC from 5:30-6:30. You can also tour the high school, eat dinner, meet the teachers, find out about clubs and activities and get comfortable with MCHS.
MCHS Announces Spring Parent Conference Nights! Freshman Enrollment is March 1st and 3rd. We would like to invite ALL parents to come by the building - chat with your child's teachers, eat dinner, and give us some feedback as we begin the last quarter of this school year.
Check out the Snow Day Album we made of the pictures the students sent us on our days off! Mustangs enjoying the snow!

Put your hats on!!
Parents and friends...
We're partnering with the McDonald County Sheriff's Department to help those in need this Christmas Season. 🎄
The Department's The Shop with a Hero program is raising money to buy Christmas gifts for children whose families may not be able to provide them this year.
They have a goal of helping 200 families.
Please help us raise money for this wonderful program by letting your student wear a hat 🧢 to school with a $1 donation on Wednesday, December 1st.
This applies to all schools and all campuses.
Let's show how much we care for every child, every day, whatever it takes this Holiday Season! 💕 🤲
Tomorrow night at 6PM the Student Advocacy Team is hosting Childhood 2.0 in the PAC. It is a movie and discussion about what kids are facing today vs when we were growing up. There will be snacks and goodie bags and anyone who attends gets a free assignment pass. Hope to see you tomorrow night!
Parent Teacher Conferences are next week on Tuesday and Thursday. Your student's Seminar teacher should have called or sent a letter home for you to choose your times and the teachers that you want to visit with. If you have not heard from them please call the office to schedule! We hope to see you one of the two evenings. The hours are 4PM to 8 PM each evening. We will have childcare available in the gym if you need it. We will also have snacks and drinks and translators available as well. This is a great time to come see the school and get to know the teachers a little bit better. Our Counseling office will be open if you have questions about scholarships, college or trade school applications or the FAFSA. Our Center for Personal Growth and Wellness will also be open if you need to seek help for your student or yourself. Finally we will offer Flu Shots and Meningitis Vaccinations on Thursday evening. You will need your Medicaid number or your insurance information. The Meningitis vaccine is required for seniors. If your student is under age 18 you will need to sign for consent for either the flu or the meningitis vaccine. We hope to see you next week! Have a great weekend!
