My Students

The students at MHS are fun and hardworking. They come into the library daily working on different projects. They are involved in several clubs, organizations and sports which keeps them and their parents extremely busy.

Our amazing high school students deserve the best.

Some of our students have limited resources and other have limited time to collect the resources need for the project supplies. I would love help in providing them a place in the library for basic supplies such as poster board and art supplies.

My Project

For high school aged kids asking for basic school supplies is completely embarrassing. Unfortunately, their parents may not be able to afford supplies or they may be too busy to get the supplies in a timely manner. Regardless, the teachers are assigning projects and basic supplies are needed on our campus every week.

Sometimes, all students need is help with the basics in life.

If the students knew they could use supplies in the library for their projects I know morale would be boosted and assignments would likely be on time.
