Warrior News
A Weekly Newsletter for Warrior Families and Students
April 9, 2020
Hey Warrior Nation,
It’s been almost a month since our students have been able to walk the halls of MHS. What that means is unique for each Warrior, but it likely includes missed musical performances, club activities and competitions, athletic events, and simply the gift that it is to be present with friends and staff who genuinely care about one another. This time is a challenging time for everyone and we want to remind you that we are thinking about you and our hearts go out to all of you for everything that has been missed so far.
As a result, we are rallying together with many other high schools in the area to create an event to honor our ENTIRE senior class. On Friday, April 10 from 8:00 pm - 8:20 pm (20 min for the class of 2020) we will be turning on the lights across our MHS School Campus, including the Performing Arts Center, the football and soccer fields, and the main entrance at Muskego High School. Our hope is that as these lights shine, it will be a powerful reminder to our senior class that our entire Warrior community is thinking about them and that we are proud of them.
On Friday night, please join us in honoring all of our awesome students and let them know you are thinking of them by turning on your front porch light, string some Christmas lights, or carry a light on a walk during this time. You are welcome to drive by Muskego High School during this time, but we would ask that you remain in your vehicle as we follow the guidelines from the government with regard to social distancing and gathering. If you get a chance, take a picture and share it with us on social media (Twitter or Facebook) so we can celebrate together.
Thank you for your continued support as we work together through these unprecedented times. Each week brings new information and we get better every day. Rember, we are Warriors, we are strong, we are courageous, we are caring, we are resilient, and we continue to SHINE BRIGHT!

2020 Graduation
We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to gather information prior to making any decisions about our graduation ceremony. This event is incredibly important to our students, families, staff, and community thus any modifications or adjustments will be carefully and thoughtfully weighed out. Our goal is to have all graduation plans finalized in early May.

At the same time, let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
Where are my March ACT scores?
Students will be receiving a copy of their ACT scores through the regular mail by the end of April. With the results, students will also be given their ACT ID number.
Students should then sign onto the ACT site and create their own account using this ID number. Students need to do this because if a college needs an official ACT score, they will need the online account in order for ACT to send the score.
Please contact your school counselor if you have any questions.
Warrior Senior Spotlight
MHS School Counselors are continuing to highlight our awesome seniors on Twitter. We want all post-secondary plans to be represented and celebrated! Several emails were sent out to the Class of 2020, but we also encourage you to remind students to sign up for a specific date through the link Warrior Senior Spotlight. And please follow us @MHSStuServices
