MST Weekly Update
April 12, 2024
Good afternoon to all of our MST family members.
3rd quarter report cards/progress reports were distributed to all students today in their Advisory. They are also published online in Aspen. At this point, a student should have 2s and 3s for the competencies in every class. If they still have 1s, they are most likely significantly behind pace and need to get a lot of work completed to get back on track. This is particularly important for seniors who are planning to graduate on June 15th. June 1st is the senior deadline to submit any past due work in order for it to be corrected and possibly resubmitted in time for graduation.
A reminder that every subject has an after-school makeup and help day. We also have tutoring available during the school day provided by our own National Honor Society students and students from St. Anselm College.
Next week will be our spring Spirit Week sponsored by the senior class. See details for each day below.
Last week, students from our Cosmetology and Culinary Arts programs participated in the annual Skills USA competition. We are proud to announce that we had six of our students earn medals at the events.
Cosmetology Winners:
Aaron Patton (MSTHS) - Gold Medal for Barbering
Kylii Petersen (Goffstown) - Gold Medal for Long Hair Design
Jennifer Hernandez (Memorial) - Gold Medal for Cosmetology

Suany Galindo (Memorial) - Silver Medal for Long Hair Design.
Culinary Arts Winner:
Jade Hazel-Bronze Medal
Congratulations to all of you for your excellent representation of MST. Good luck to our gold winners in the upcoming national competition.
This coming week, students in our Criminal Justice, Health Professions, Fire/EMT and Cosmetology programs will be participating in a mass casualty drill event. This is a large scale, daylong event to provide the students in each of these programs an opportunity to experience what a mass casualty event might be like. They will use the skills that they learned in these programs to make on the spot decisions as to what would be the best course of action to provide services to those in need. This event is usually done every other year, but this will be the first since 2019 due to the disruptions of COVID in 2020 and the following year. The students pictured are practicing skills in back boarding required to transport an injured patient.
This year's prom is at The Farmhouse at Candia Woods on Friday May 10th from 6:30 to 10:00 PM. Announcements will be made when tickets are on sale now. Any guest who is not a full time MSTHS student must complete a guest permission form, or they will not be allowed to attend. Guests must be under the age of 21.
May 10th will be a regular school day for everyone, and students must be present in school (and in all of their classes) for more than half of the school day (3-1/2 hours) or they will not be able to attend the prom. There are NO exceptions to this, so please schedule any appointments accordingly. Students who arrive on time for school must be in school until at least 11:20. If they arrive late to school, they must be in school for 3-1/2 hours before they can be dismissed. No students will be dismissed without a note signed by a parent or guardian. There will be a meeting with all students attending the prom during Advisory that day.
