The ACT has become a rite of passage for juniors. The ACT is important for college planning as it is used not only for admissions, but also for placement and scholarship money. MCHS has invited ExcelEdge to offer ACT 36. Learn more about the course here: https://bit.ly/4nMBqAs

Geometry in Construction students have completed a unit in which they were required to make pencil holders in various shapes and gifted them to teachers. They also made parallelogram desk organizers. Throughout the construction units, the students were studying all the various properties of quadrilaterals as well as a separate unit on surface area and volume. It was a great, hands on learning experience for our students!

Mrs. Caputo's South REACH Art 2 class made a Stars and Stripes craft and a "Star Spangled Banner" to celebrate the day. We think they did a terrific job! Happy Veterans Day!

Today, we honored local veterans and their families at our Veterans Day Breakfast and Assembly. Students gathered at both campuses for a presentation and helped us thank our veterans for their service. We are incredibly grateful. #mchsproud
