Many thanks to the faculty, staff, and students of MRHS for their generosity recently. Even with the limitations and restraints of COVID, we were able to send $80 to The Sampson Fund of Cape Cod. Thank you Mary Hemeon and StuCo for your help!! -Ms. Lisa Forte-Doyle
Many thanks to Betsy Casey and the Interact Club for inviting me to a recent meeting where I gave a presentation on The Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tennessee. It was so kind of them to allow me the pleasure of sharing not only a passion of mine but also the great work that the Sanctuary provides! -Ms. Lisa Forte-Doyle
- Shark Shoutout to my daughter/Nick Seeley's wife, Kate. She is a vaccine hunter extraordinaire and secured appointments for 10 staff members this week and last at MRHS! -Ms. Bernadette Waystack
