Great job to our Battle of the Beads winners! In honor of Battle of the Bands Friday night, students each got a set of beads during the school day. They play Rock, Paper, Scissors with each other throughout the day to earn beads from their opponent.

Congratulations to our newest AVID Warriors Jennifer Johnson, Araceli Campos, Yesenia Morales and Annette Folden! They completed the twelve-hour AVID strategies training. AVID is a 45-year-old national program that includes an elective class, where the goal is to help students achieve greater success in both the classroom and in their future. This is MCHS' third year as an AVID school.

Freshmen had a fun spring spirit rally! They were encouraged to try their best on the Pre-ACT. They also began a staff versus student tug of war competition that will continue when they come to their Upper Campus visit later this month.
