Quarter 1 Ends October 27
With the end of Quarter 1 approaching on October 27, we encourage families to take a few minutes to review their student's progress. If you have questions about grades, missing work, or academic performance, please contact your student's teachers. Thank you for your partnership in supporting student success.
Reminder for Student-Athletes and Families
As a reminder, a letter was recently shared with MRHS coaches and student-athletes outlining expectations for representing our school both in person and online. We encourage families to review the letter together and discuss the important role that sportsmanship, respect, and responsible digital citizenship play in our school community. Thank you for partnering with us to help ensure that MRHS Athletics continues to reflect the values of integrity, respect, and inclusion. Please see the attached letter for more information.
