If you missed senior family night last week, never fear! The school counselors are meeting with seniors during their English classes this week to make sure they get the information. Please check with your senior about their green folder FULL of important dates, information, and paperwork. Our counselors are here to help, and if you need anything at all, please call the school and ask for Ms. Deneke or Ms. Spaight.

MUSHS students have several opportunities to get community service hours in October! Almost all of them will be during school hours, but students need to communicate with the appropriate teacher or sponsor to get the process started. You and your student can sit down and look at this calendar to see what would work best. If you have questions, you can call the school and ask for Mr. Fairley.

Recently our AVID seniors visited Harding University campus. Students attended Black & Gold Day where they gained insightful information on the opportunities available at Harding. Students attended college classes, received information about scholarships, toured the campus, and received a delicious meal of their choice. They had a great time learning about this choice for life after high school!
