Important Items for Mustang Success
Conflict Mediation - refer someone else or self refer
Struggling students? Reporting incidents or concerns
- refer students in "drama" or in "need" to conflict mediation
- seek help by connecting with counselors or admin as needed
Students can self refer to conflict mediation as well. See the form above for referrals.
Remind students of our Anonymous Incident Reporting system on our website. It allows for anonymous reporting of bullying, self harm, violence, harassment and more. If the person allows us, we can also communicate two way to get additional details while they still remain anonymous if they choose.

If you see something, say something
There have been small groups of students doing damage not only to our campus but to businesses as well. In addition, a few have unfortunately been misrepresenting while interacting with adults in the community, too. Then, we add the damage and problems associated with the Tik Tok challenges and the poor behaviors on InstaGram to the problem. This is not how any of us want our school represented and it paints such a bad picture when this is such a great place to be.
Yet, we know there are so many more students, several thousands at MT, who are doing the right thing and representing MTHS in an awesome light! We are so proud of you and thank you for having Integrity, Respect and Confidence building up the Community!
So to help us continue this, please remember to tell an adult if you see something so that we can help everyone on our campus and off campus as well. And, keep doing what is right Mustangs and treat others how you would expect to be treated. You Matter and All of our Mustangs and Community Matter. Let's show the world how great it is to be a Mustang!
WELLNESS and Self-Care and Support
We want everyone to be well so here are some reminders of resources available in the picture below.

- Wear Masks indoors - mandatory regardless of vaccination status
- Hand wash and sanitize often - entrance/exit of rooms
- Have up to date daily seating charts/group charts, and accurate attendance records - this matters so much
