Assessment Reminders for the 2021-2022 School Year |
|
|
|
While GaDOE leadership will monitor this school year and make adjustments as necessary, the U.S. Department of Education is not expected to grant any testing flexibility or waivers in 2021-2022. This means students, even those receiving virtual instruction, will be expected to participate in Georgia Milestones/GAA/ ACCESS
in-person this school year.

MP Construction Partners Step Up with Donations |
|
|
|
Special thanks to MP Construction partners Lowe Electric and
Griffin Lumber for the donation of materials needed to prepare for the 2021 Skills Challenge. We all know that Practice Makes Perfect, but construction contest practice is expensive! Without the help of our industry partners the MP competitors would not be as well positioned to win the gold medal in their respective contests. Roofing competitors
Ryan Jenkins, Michael Head
& Leighton Judd practice with materials donated
by Griffin Lumber of Forsyth.

JROTC Precision Air Rifle Team Tryouts |

The Precision Air Rifle Team will begin tryouts for the 2021-2022 season after we return from Fall Break. The air rifles used by MPHS are Olympic grade Walthers. The course of fire is the standard 3 position, (prone, standing, kneeling) 10 meter range shooting a 10 bull target. Hitting a bullseye here is the same as hitting a quarter at 100 yards with a regular rifle. Stay tuned for more info on tryouts after the break.
