Street Smarts – Drivers Education classes at MRHS!

Did you know that when your student states their required drivers education class here at MRHS the Boosters receives a portion of the proceeds?  This is truly a win-win as the student has the convenience of the class being held right at school and the family has the satisfaction of knowing some of their tuition money goes back to the school.  For a class schedule, visit the Boosters website and for more information about the class, go to Street Smarts.
