Mandatory Identification Requirement for Students Taking the S.A.T.

ALL students must present a photo ID when taking the SAT. If you are a student who does not have a photo ID, your school counselor can complete an SAT approved letter that will satisfy this requirement.

Please stop by the counseling department to make an appointment with your counselor.  Be prepared to take a picture to be uploaded to the letter.

Thank you.

HBCU College Fair

Students and Parents:

The HBCU college fair was cancelled this year due to lack of participation from the Universities. My apologies to those who planned on attending. We are hoping that we will be able to have some of the HBCU schools visit MHS soon this year but if you have specific questions about a HBCU school please see your guidance counselor. Again, my apologies for any inconvenience that this may have caused.


Kindest Regards

Need SAT Prep for the November SAT?

This course will benefit rising Seniors who either still need to take the SAT, or who need to improve their existing scores. Most Colleges and Universities start Rolling Admissions in October. Taking the November 2nd SAT will allow students to have test results in hand by late November, giving them enough time to meet the Admissions Deadlines for their target schools.

This course will also benefit rising Juniors who have already completed Geometry and Algebra II. It is recommended that students take the SAT multiple times. Taking the November 2nd SAT will allow students to get a head start on the competition. The course provides in-depth content review while also coaching them on important aspects of the admissions process.

Our course is competitively priced at only $199! (Similar courses will cost $300 and up)
