MHS Core Values

Demonstrate any of the core values and receive a Core Value ticket, drop it in the Main Office or Freshmen Center box, receive an Imagine Coin and maybe you will be the next winner of the MHS Core Value t-shirt!
POSITIVE IMPACTS
Click on this link https://forms.gle/nL7bypeECyRKWBqv8 and share a snap-shot story of how the actions of others have impacted you that can be announced in 20-30 seconds. Stories should relate specifically to our core values of RESPECT, RESPONSIBILITY, KINDNESS, INTEGRITY & PERSEVERANCE. This month’s story prompt is, "How has someone's act of Kindness positively impacted you?"
Fairuza demonstrated Kindness when she helped a substitute teacher pick up pencils that spilled onto the floor. Nathan demonstrated Respect as well as Kindness when he helped a student with his work and for being very kind to his peer. Fernando demonstrated Responsibility and Perseverance when he earned Honor Roll Quarter 1. And because both Liam and Fernando did something in alignment with Responsibility, our highlighted Core Value for the month of January, they also received a Red Hawk wrist band!
