May 31, 2024

Good afternoon to all of our MST family members.
As the month of May comes to a close, we are down to two weeks of school for the 9th, 10th and 11th graders and one week of classes for the seniors. Today the junior class gave us a preview of the coming season by hosting the Summer Games during lunches. Students were able to go outside and enjoy some fun games and some summertime snacks.
