This week, the Board of Education recognized Maya Ledesma for her 4th place finish at the State Cross Country meet. Maya also earned first place at sectionals AND at regionals, in which she made history as the first runner to break 17 minutes on that course. Congratulations! #mchsproud
Congratulations to Megan Belli who received a positive referral! She went above and beyond to help a friend and to make sure MCHS was safe for her peers. She helped clean up a major drink spill in the hallway near the social studies office for about 5-10 minutes. She didn't need to clean, but she chose to do so to help. Way to go, Megan! #mchsproud
Congratulations to Amelia Brykaj, Peyton Nuccio, Lexie Wenckowski, and Lotta Steiner for receiving a MCHS is You positive referral from Ms. Julie Ziel!

It was very nice to have students take pride in celebrating a variety of cultures. #mchsproud
Last night, the Board of Education recognized Davian Atwood, Marisol Carbajal, MaKayla Cole, Rhiannon Curiel, and Isaac Ulloa for being named a National Hispanic, African American, and/or First Generation Program Scholar by the College Board. This is a tremendous honor that recognizes the academic achievement on the PSAT, on AP exams, and cumulative GPA. Congratulations! #mchsproud
The Career and Technical Education (CTE) department took students to the Local 150 Operating Engineers Training Facility in Wilmington as part of National Apprenticeship Week. Students toured the training facility and gained insights into careers such as heavy machine operator, heavy machine technician, construction building inspector, and geothermal and water well drilling specialist. The students engaged in several hands-on learning experiences. It was a great visit and we appreciate the collaboration!
The Art Department hosted an 8th grade workshop and it was a big success. The students were extremely creative and engaged. We enjoyed being able to teach our future students at MCHS!
Want to look back at an old MCHS team? For the last 6 years, students in Sports Media classes have researched more than 400 Minooka varsity teams. The Athletics Archives is a work in progress. Check it out: https://sites.google.com/mchs.net/athletics-archives/home
Check out the basketball team watching film on our new video board in the main gym at Central Campus!
Congratulations to D'Angelo McKay who received a positive referral from Ms. Ashley Veleker! He saw her struggling to carry things to her next class and stopped what he was doing to hurry ahead and help her get into her classroom. Way to be kind, D'Angelo! #mchsproud
Our student clubs Interact, NHS and Allies packed holiday shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. This year, we are sending 50 shoeboxes overseas to boys and girls around the world. The shoeboxes are filled with gifts that the students purchased to help Santa. #mchsproud
Back by popular demand, all students are invited to participate or attend our annual Dodgeball Tournament on Wednesday, December 4 at 7:30 p.m. in the Central Main Gym.
Our Geometry in Construction class had a field trip to Home Depot! The students were required to figure out area, lateral area and surface area to determine square footage and total costs of materials needed for a project. Students were divided into groups to figure out costs of the cheapest materials and the most expensive materials while interacting with employees. It was a great real life experience for our students! @mchs_geometry_in_construction
Students are invited to join us Monday, December 2 at 6 p.m. in the Central Cafeteria for cookie decorating, holiday movies, and more! All students are encouraged to take part in this brand new event!

Congratulations to A.J. Manzo for receiving a positive referral from Ms. Brooke Brenczewski!

What a kind gesture! Way to go, A.J.! #mchsproud
