On Wednesday afternoon we celebrated our MCHS staff that is soon retiring. Thank you, JoAnn May, Jackie Huber, Cyntha Hartzburg, Lynda Johanes, and Virginia Robinson for all your hard work through the years!


In honor of Computer Science Education Week, we'd like to give a shout-out to Instructors Doug Primus and Tim Kirk, along with all of our educators who inspire students to learn about computer science and related disciplines.
