A representative from South College will be at MHS on Tuesday, January 21 during the morning break.  Students that are TN Promise eligible can attend South College tuition free.  South College automatically awards a grant to cover the remaining tuition costs.  A quarter system schedule allows medical associate degree programs participants to fit inside the two year time frame.  South is a test optional institution and works one on one with each applicant on acceptance into the school.  The most popular major is the BSN program but all medical programs are relatively popular.

We would like to invite parents to attend our Spring Open House on Tuesday, January 28.  The evening will begin at 6:00 p.m. with important grade-level meetings conducted by our Guidance Department about registration for next school year.

At 7:00 p.m., following the class meetings, parents will have the opportunity to meet teachers and rotate through their student's schedule.

Sophomores and Juniors who took the PSAT in October need to stop by the guidance office to pick up their score reports and test booklets.
