Student Parent Teacher Conferences
It’s conference time!
MTCHS is hosting Student-Parent-Teacher Conferences on October 21 and 22 from 4:30 to 8:30 pm. No appointments are necessary, just come in and meet and greet. This is a great time to get to know your student’s teachers, ask questions, address problems, formulate plans, or just say “hello!” Please note that students are included and are strongly encouraged to attend along with their parents.
PSATs today!
This morning the sophomores and juniors will take the PSAT/NMSQT during the regular school day. This is a preliminary or practice SAT for the most part. Juniors, however, can qualify as National Merit Scholars if they score well.
Testing began at 7:55 and will last until lunchtime.
The Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) is a standardized test administered by the College Board and cosponsored by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) in the United States.
Photo Retakes
Thursday, October 10 will be picture retake day and Senior picture day beginning at 8:00 a.m.
