Mayfield High School Weekly Update

Congratulations to sophomore, Ryan Nemeth, on scoring a perfect 36 on his ACT.

To put this into perspective, scoring a 36 is the rarest score of all on the ACT—just 0.313% of all test takers earned a perfect ACT score.

Congratulations Ryan!!

Mayfield High School's Student Council will be holding their 2nd annual Rainbow Run Saturday, June 10th at Highland Heights Community Park. All proceeds will go directly to Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital.

Please support this initiative by either participating in the event or by becoming a sponsor.

Join us on Friday, May 19th at 7pm in the HS auditorium for Mayfield High School's 2nd annual TEDx event. The event is open to both students and the community. It will be free, but tickets will still need to be obtained through the link on the flyer.

This is an exciting two-week paid summer program designed to give high school students entering 10th, 11th, or 12th grade a first-hand learning experience about the profession of nursing.

The UH Future Nurse Academy will build on the student's existing talents, skills, and gifts preparing them for healthcare careers beyond high school. Students are nurtured with the thoughtful support of UH clinicians and partners.

The program includes visits to area college/university schools of nursing, while focusing on well-being techniques, shadowing clinical rotations and hands-on experience to learn different nursing skills. Our ultimate goal is that students follow their dream of becoming healthcare professionals and stay in the Northeast Ohio area where they grew up.

John Steadman taught and coached basketball at Mayfield High School from 1970 to 1995. He was the head coach from 1970 to 1988. Mr. Steadman was a tremendous motivator, inspiring his students and athletes to be the best they could be. The Steadman Award was established to give Mayfield athletes the opportunity to be voted into the Mayfield Athletic Hall of Fame for honors worthy of “Hall of Fame” status but did not meet the established criteria. The Steadman Award winner will be inducted into the Mayfield Athletic Wall of Fame and be recognized at the Mayfield Alumni Hall of Fame dinner that is part of Homecoming week.

If you would like to nominate someone for the 2024 Steadman Award, please be sure to fill out this nomination form
