Today is National Ratification Day. This day commemorates the ratification of the Treaty of Paris on January 14, 1784, at the Maryland State House in Annapolis, Maryland, by the Confederation Congress.  After the Declaration of Independence was signed, nearly eight years passed before the British and the Americans agreed to a cease-fire. As part of the Treaty of Paris, Great Britain recognized the United States as a sovereign entity.

Picture retakes for the spring are this Thursday, January 16th.  If you are new to MHS or have not had your picture taken, please make sure to have it taken on Thursday!

Ladies and gentlemen, please do not forget to put your parking tag in your car.  Vehicles without their tag will be ticketed!

The Travel Club Interest Group is meeting Wednesday, January 15th, after school in room E-220.  Join us to learn more about all things travel!  See you Wednesday at 3pm!

Congratulations to the MHS Thespians for their excellent work at the 2025 Kansas State Thespian Festival in Wichita! They attended workshops, watched productions by other Kansas High Schools, and participated in competitive events. Most importantly, MHS received the gold Thespian Troupe award, which is the highest Thespian Troupe rating.  They achieved this award by excelling in the following during 2024: Theatrical events with auditions, Student leadership achievement, Marketing and promotional activities, School and community outreach, Troupe community building, and Thespian troupe standards.  Additionally, many of our students participated in the Thespy Acting Competitions. Kaylin Garrett, Silas Mire, Julie Peterson, and Alex Ruhl all received excellent ratings. Riana Howells and Aubrianna Smith received superior ratings, which qualifies them to compete at the International Thespian Festival in June! Congratulations to all! We’re very proud of our work in 2024. We hope to do the same in 2025!
