As the time approaches for all Dragons to return home to their den, Homecoming Week is in full swing.  Students at MHS have a full slate of activities and events planned for the week, highlighted by a full week of sports, a bonfire, Friday’s parade, and the football game against West Jefferson.  

The parade is scheduled to start at 12:00 noon, and follow the usual course through town to the high school.  A Booster Tailgate will be held at the end of the parade.  The game itself is scheduled to begin at 7:00 p.m. Friday night.  Make sure to come out to support your team!  The Homecoming Dance will be held from 8:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Saturday.
