PTSA support on curriculum night

The MIHS hallways and classrooms were a-buzz on Curriculum Night, Thursday, September 25th!

Thank you to parents and families who attended! Your PTSA was proud to support the evening with charcuterie for parents and families, as well as dinner, dessert, and drinks for all the teachers and staff, thanks to a donation from Pagliacci and Macrina Bakery on Mercer Island! (Please thank them and support them, too!) It was exciting to see so many of you spending an evening in the shoes of our high schoolers and meeting their dedicated teachers!
