As usual there is much going on here at MTHS that I wanted to Oct 20 Jazz Symposium share with all of you. Oct 22 PTSA Meeting Academics- A couple of highlights that I wanted to share with everyone are the STEM Magnet School and Oct 26 Improv Night our enrollment. We opened the STEM Magnet School this fall with 55 9th graders and 30 10th graders. We Nov 2 End of 1st Quarter are very excited to have such a strong cohort of students enrolled in our STEM courses this year and we are Nov 3 PTSA Bazaar already planning for the 13-14 school year as we continue to expand our STEM offerings. Our enrollment Nov 6 Orchestra Concert has remained stable for the first time in the last 3 years. We are at 1240 students, exactly where we were projected to be when we made our staffing plans last spring. This is very important for us because it means Nov 7 Veteran’s Day Band Concert that we will not have to do any adjusting of classes to accommodate for lower than projected enrollment. Nov 11 Swing, Swing, Swing Dance Nov 12 1st Day of Winter Sports Staff Development- One of the questions we get asked constantly is what are teachers working on during Nov 14 Superintendent Parent Mtg the Fridays when students are not in school. This time is very valuable to us as we use it to spend time Nov 15 Drama: “Piece of My Heart” in professional development learning how to become more effective in the classroom. This year it is especially important to have this time as we are learning about the new teacher evaluation system that will Nov 18 Jam Session (Basketball) be implemented starting in 2013-14. There is much we have to learn and become familiar with and having Nov 21 No School large chunks of time to work together is really important for us. Nov 22 No School Nov 23 No School Athletics- As hard as it is to believe, we are a few weeks away from wrapping up the regular season for our Nov 26 PTSA Meeting fall sport programs. Several of our teams are in contention for post-season competition. I want to thank all of our student-athletes in fall sports for their work on the field or court and for representing our school in Nov 29 STEM Parent Info Night such a positive way.

The scholarships are based on financial need, academic excellence, and involvement in the Terrace community. The scholarships are funded by generous donations from the staff and community. There are several ways to give: MTHS has an OFFICIAL • Simply send a check Facebook page! • Sponsor a scholarship- in the past scholarships have been named in honor of loved ones or towards specific areas like Math/Science • Donate through the United Way campaign at your place of employment As our economy continues to lag there is a particular need this year.
