This Week at MHS

Happy New Year!

Welcome to the start of the second semester! We are excited to have students back in the building back in the building January 7th. Students will start their new schedules our first day. Students will report to homeroom for about 10 minutes to receive a copy of their schedule. It will be an "A" day. Report cards from the first semester will be mailed home January 15th.

We are proud to announce that the State released school grades over the Winter Break. Maryville High School earned an A grade for last school year's work! Congratulations to our students and staff for their accomplishments!

As crazy as this sounds, it is time to begin planning for next school year.The registration window for the 2025-26 school year is January 13 through March 7, 2024. Counselors will host informational sessions for current 10th and 11th graders via homeroom on January 15, 22 and 29. These sessions will review four-year plans and graduation progression via the SchooLinks Course Planner and outline the registration process. Counselors will meet with current juniors individually January 13-March 7 and current sophomores via classroom meetings February 18-March 7. Stay tuned for more information!

We will hold a parent meeting for Rising Sophomores on Wednesday, January 15th at 6pm in the MHS Auditorium.

Our second semester Open House will be Thursday, January 23rd from 5:30-7:30pm. This event is a "drop in" opportunity for parents and will not have a formal schedule or grade level presentations. Parents are invited to speak with any teacher or visit a classroom they were not able to see during the July Maryville Mania.

The checkout note must include the student’s full name, date, time of dismissal, phone number where parent/guardian can be reached for verification, and signature of the parent/guardian.

3. The parent/guardian comes to the main entrance office to sign the student out.

The assistant principal’s office will assist the student and permit the student to call home.
