Hello Trojans!
It’s fun to start seeing all the little pieces of the school year coming together. Students are finding their routines, building new connections, getting involved, and becoming more comfortable asking for help when they need it. In classrooms, hallways, and during lunch, we’re seeing the relationships and sense of belonging that make a school feel like a community. None of these moments are particularly big on their own, but together they are what make a school year successful, and it’s exciting to see those pieces taking shape at MHS!
As always, please reach out if you have any questions or need support!
Go Trojans!
-Mr. Doffing, Principal
-Mr. Zabel, Assistant Principal

Seniors & Families: Let’s Talk About Financial Aid!As graduation gets closer, many families are beginning to think about what comes next-
college, technical school, career training, or other opportunities after high school. One
important step in that process is completing the FAFSA or WASFA (Washington Application
for State Financial Aid). Both applications open on October 1, 2026.
The FAFSA and WASFA help students determine what financial assistance may be available
to help pay for education after high school. Depending on eligibility, students may qualify
for grants, work-study, loans, and other financial aid. Even if you aren't sure your family will
qualify, it is worth completing an application. You never know what opportunities may be
available until you apply.

To allow our staff sufficient time to locate and prepare your student, all end-of-day pick-up requests must be received by 2:00 p.m.
If a pick-up request is received after 2:00 p.m., we will do our best to have your student ready; however, we cannot guarantee that your student will be ready at the time of pick-up.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
