This week, representatives from the MCS Hunter Safety Shooting Team visited RMS to discuss upcoming events and extend membership opportunities to students who are interested in joining. This group works to hone shooting and hunting skills, and to promote the safe handling of firearms. The team currently meets weekly on Sundays to prepare for their upcoming district tournament. They will also be hosting a hunter safety education course in the near future - be on the lookout for more information! To learn more about the upcoming course or joining the team, please reach out to Miss Patterson at cpatterson@martin.k12.nc.us. Thank you to Mrs. Rushing and team at RMS for giving us the opportunity to connect with future members of our growing program!

This past week was a national school counselors week. MCHS is very lucky to have 3 outstanding counselors. Mrs. Maren Modlin (Early College), Mrs. Nicole Langdale (MCHS 9/11 graders), and Mrs. Karolyn Leavelle (MCHS 10/12 graders). We also have a part time counselor that assists the counseling department in a variety of ways in Mrs. Elizabeth Huff. We are so very thankful for all they do for our students.
