Most MCHS school supplies are up to the student's personal preference. The only items we ask you to purchase are no. 2 pencils, pens and a TI-84 Plus calculator. Students will be told on the first day of school by their teachers if they need any additional supplies for a class.
Check out our Class of 2022 "Next Step" virtual map and see where our seniors are headed after graduation! The map is actively updated. Seniors can reach out to their counselors if they'd like to be added to the map.
