Attention Juniors and interested Sophomores:  If you are a junior considering attending a four year college after high school you will need to take a college entrance exam this spring, either the SAT or the ACT.  On Saturday, October 16th, MTHS will offer a practice for the SAT called the PSAT.  Juniors that score high enough, can enter the National Merit Scholarship competitions.  Sophomores, you may also sign up to take the PSAT as a practice for when you will take it next year to enter the National Merit Scholarship Competitions.

If you want to take the PSAT, sign up in the guidance office between September 13th and September 17th.  You will need to have a $21.00 registration fee.  We will give a test preparation booklet to everyone that registers.
