MHS PTSA Membership

Why should my student and I join the MHS PTSA? I heard that everything they earn and do is for the Senior Class. How do these ridiculous rumors get started? While it is true that we do a lot for our seniors, it is certainly not all that our PTSA is about. The MHS PTSA is all about how we can improve our school and the lives of all ofour students, faculty, and parents. Your membership is critically important to the success of our school and all we do. Take a look at all your contribution will help provide.
