The School Counseling Team will be conducting Senior College & Career Prep Presentations in MHS US Government/Economics classrooms. 


Q: What if I don’t have a US Gov/Econ class at MHS? 

A: Students who do not have a semester 1 MHS US Gov/Econ class should reach out to their school counselor to set up a senior meeting. Your counselor will then send you a calendar invite, which will serve as your pass.
