Mustang News - November 11, 2024
From The Principal
A huge congratulations to our State Cross Country runners! Our girls team won second for the 3A division and our boys team also ran a strong race; the perseverance and teamwork across both teams were truly phenomenal. Additionally, well done to Julian N and Braden L for being selected to represent MSHS in the Tri Peaks League Honor Band this previous Tuesday!
Please check out our PAC Auction, which is live from now through 11/20! This is an awesome opportunity to support our students and staff 6-12 as all of the money raised from this event supports Mini Grants and other PAC initiatives. We are so grateful for the hard work of our PAC team in coordinating this fundraiser.
Have a great rest of your week!
