Let's put the brakes on for a second to appreciate the phenomenal work of our school bus drivers! On National School Bus Driver Day, we honor your dedication, your patience, and your continuous efforts in keeping us safe. Thank you to our amazing students that made today special!
The entire week, we celebrated the hard work and dedication of Mrs. Brennan, as part of the Assistant Principal Week. There were various activities planned for the occasion, but one of the most enjoyable moments was when we acknowledged the fact that she is not an average AP.
During the days leading up to spring break, MHS participated in another NPFH lesson. In the activity, students were encouraged to identify their own biases and stereotypes. The aim was to help them understand how such biases affect their relationships with others in our community
As a token of appreciation, we threw a surprise celebration for our School Social
Worker, Mrs. Vigeant, and Student Assistance Counselor, Mrs. Harden. With their contributions to the school community, we as a team have been able to positively impact the culture of our building.
Today’s No Place For Hate activity involved a visit to Siena College. Where colleagues and students worked together to identify ways to oppose prejudice. Including participation in anti-bias workshops, where everyone got a chance to highlight acts for change.
MHS is taking part in a new initiative called “No Place For Hate”. Our MHS community has committed to a student created pledge that cultivates student leadership, unity in our school community, and inspires students and staff to become more effective allies.
World Kindness Day is Monday!
Make your mark by spreading some joy and remembering that kindness is something anyone can give without losing anything themselves.
Congratulations to all of the Dukes who signed their NLI today. It's been a
pleasure to work alongside all of you and I wish you the best!
