Important Reminders, Upcoming Events, and Celebrations

Good afternoon, Mustangs!

Homecoming Friday is here, and it looks like we’re in for beautiful weather! Our Homecoming Parade steps off at 3:30 p.m. today, and if you’re not marching with us, we hope to see you cheering along the route.

Congratulations to our Homecoming King and Queen...and a special thank you to our talented Baile Folklórico dancers, who brought such a vibrant and meaningful celebration of Hispanic Heritage to today’s assembly. Their performance was a wonderful addition to an already exciting day!

Tonight, the celebration continues as our Mustangs take on Libertyville High School. We hope to see a packed house and plenty of Mustang spirit in the stands! Get your tickets now.

And the fun doesn’t stop there. Tomorrow, we’ll welcome MHS alumni and community members back to campus for a look at how our new spaces are coming along. It’s always special to open our doors and share the exciting changes happening at MHS.

Enjoy the weekend, Mustangs, and thank you for helping make Homecoming such a memorable celebration for our students and community!

Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to see more of the festivities!

Have a great weekend!

Today we celebrate the incredible coaches and activity sponsors who give so much of their time, energy, and encouragement to our students. Whether they are leading a team, guiding a club, planning events, or helping students discover new interests, their impact reaches far beyond practices and meetings.
