The MTHS Homecoming Parade Starts Friday at 2:00 PM. Please see the attached parade route and additional information.
MTHS Faculty/Staff: Please don't park in the CTE lot - we are using that spot for all of our 1st Responders, so it's easy for them and close for our athletes. You can park in the grass just north of the lot.
MTHS Students: The North Parking lot will be closed on Friday, September 27th. Local law enforcement OK'd you to park near the school in residential areas just for that day. Also, if your team is riding on a firetruck, those will be set up in the CTE lot by the band practice field.
Parents of local youth organizations/teams and Grade School leaders: plan on dropping off your parade member in the North Parking lot off Wiedman Rd at the Baseball/Softball/Tennis complex. We are trying to manage the flow of traffic and parking to make this process as smooth and safe as possible, and you won't be allowed past a certain point. We'll have Student Council members available to help your child get where they need to be. For anyone who is staying and parking, you will be between the JV softball field and Varsity baseball field.
HoCo Cook-out will be Wednesday, September 25th. Lunch will be a sack lunch at the football stadium. If you would like to bring a blanket to sit on with your friends that is wonderful! All grades will be outside eating and hanging out from 11:35-12:35pm. Freshman and Sophomores will go through the line first followed by Juniors and Seniors. While you are not eating, you can choose to play outdoor games near the end zone, walk the track with your friends, or sit and relax . Our rain plan is a picnic style lunch inside.
Homecoming kickball tournament! Thanks to all who came out to play. Special shout out to the staff team!!
Bonfire kickoff!! A great start to HOCO week!

We will honor our four seniors: Olivia Bradford, Amelia Cooper, Ellie Schaffer, and Wilma Gronn-Weiss There will be free Kona Ice from 5:30-7 PM for all spectators and players!
