MMHS nominated some AMAZING Sterling Scholars this year.  Two of our students were chosen as Sterling Scholar Finalists.  Heather Ells was chosen for English and Kristi Mendenhall in Family and Consumer Sciences.  Congratulations to them!

We interviewed Sophomores to find out how they are adjusting to high school, and if they have liked it so far.  We found out that a lot of Sophomores are really enjoying high school, and many like it more than Junior High.  Nathan Nelson says, "I really liked Jr. High, but I think I prefer High School… I also really like having an open campus for lunch, and I'm sure I'll like it even more when I can drive!" 

National Honor Society applications for the 2019-2020 school year are available in the Library for all current sophomore and junior students interested in becoming members.  Minimum requirements for membership are a 3.75 cumulative GPA, and no NCs. Applications are due Friday, March 22nd at 3:00 pm.

Mr Marvin's Business Law Class held their first Mock Trials. We would like to thank Mr. Bradshaw for being the judge and Mr. Whites for being a jury member. It was a great first year for the business law classes, and we look forward to many more to come!

Taking the Advanced Placement exams is an important part of all AP courses. Maple Mountain High School desires that all students take AP exams for the AP classes that they have taken. Scoring well on an AP exam can often earn students college credit for their high school class, saving a significant amount on tuition.

For the 2019 AP exams, students at Maple Mountain High School will be registering online. This registration will take a few minutes and can be completed from any computer with internet access.
