Senior Citizen's Day

Marinette High School's Student Senate group holds an event for Senior Citizens every year. They put on a great event and we have a lot of the people from the community that attend. The Senior Citizens are greeted by the Student Senate members and escorted to the auditorium. Once in the auditorium our High School band and choir perform. After the performance, the Senior Citizens are then escorted to our High School Library to have lunch and play bingo. It is a great event and enjoyed by all. We are always happy to see what joy it brings to the participants.

Message From the Principal

Message From the Principal

Did you know that many of our recent Marinette High School graduates are graduating from our high school with as as many as 32 college credits? Having this many college credits under your belt allows students to finish a four-year program in just three years. With the cost of a college education skyrocketing in recent years, making it harder and harder for students and families to afford the tuition of a four-year college program, what an advantage this is for our students! For more information about how Marinette High School provides a number of opportunities for motivated students to earn college credit for both two-and four-year colleges, please refer to the “ College Credit Opportunities ” in our Marinette High School Student Handbook.

For those students not interested in going on to college and desire to go straight into the workforce, instead of college credits, how about work experience, an internship, or job shadowing instead? Not everyone is college bound but hopefully have plans or aspirations to work a certain trade, enter the military, or pursue their own career interests. If that sounds like more of the plan for your child, then please encourage them to discuss this with their high school counselor. We have built many partnerships with local community businesses that would enjoy sharing what they have to offer and working with your high schooler.

Thank you for helping us work toward our goal of every student graduates college and career ready.

Happy Holidays to all MHS Families!
