Earth Science and Physics classes had a sparkling lesson this week—growing crystals! Using pipe cleaners and a borax solution, students combined science with creativity to design all kinds of shapes, creatures, and imaginative forms.
From abstract designs to tiny animals, the results were fun, we couldn`t get pictures of them all! But our favorite might be this crystal dragon (of course 🐉).
The Tempest came to MTCHS this morning—with a creative sci-fi twist that reimagined the story on a distant planet instead of an island! 🚀 Our students were engaged from start to finish and enjoyed a lively Q&A with the actors after the performance.
The cast shared appreciative feedback about our students’ enthusiasm and thoughtful questions—way to represent, Dragons!
Many thanks to the Idaho Shakespeare Festival for bringing this memorable experience to our campus and introducing Shakespeare to students all over Idaho.

As part of CTE Month, our Work-Based Learning Coordinator/Career Counselor, Jenni Bradford, took students Carlos and Miranda to represent SkillsUSA at the CTSO Showcase in the Capitol Rotunda, sponsored by the Idaho Division of Career Technical Education.
Carlos and Miranda did an outstanding job sharing their experiences in SkillsUSA and showing off one of our robots! 🤖 Carlos is pictured speaking with Representative Hill and visiting with a House page during the event.
Students had the opportunity later to explore behind the scenes at the Capitol. In the House Chambers, they met Sergeant-at-Arms Jeff Wall, and in the Senate Chambers, they connected with Randy Lyons, who serves as Doorkeeper. They also peeked into the Attorney General’s Office and the Governor’s Office as part of their visit.
We are incredibly proud of how these students represented MTCHS and helped highlight the value of hands-on learning through SkillsUSA and CTE programs!
🎉 We are incredibly proud to announce that two of our outstanding MTCHS students, Nicole Prosser and Maxwell Browning, have been named National Merit Scholarship Finalists! 🎉
This recognition reflects years of hard work, academic excellence, and dedication to learning. These students have challenged themselves through rigorous coursework, invested countless hours in their studies, and consistently demonstrated the curiosity, perseverance, and character that define our school community.
The National Merit Scholarship Program is one of the nation’s most prestigious academic competitions. Each year, students enter by taking the PSAT/NMSQT, and only a small percentage of the highest-scoring students nationwide advance to Finalist standing. Finalists are evaluated not only on academics, but also on leadership, achievements, and their contributions to their schools and communities, making this an honor that recognizes the whole student.
We celebrate this remarkable accomplishment and the bright futures ahead for these Dragons. Your MTCHS family is cheering you on every step of the way! 🐲✨
A big THANK YOU to our amazing parents for trusting us to both embarrass and delight your students this Valentine’s season—and for fully supporting the shenanigans! 💝😄
Mr. Miller and our Student Government representatives had an absolute blast reading Candygram messages out loud and watching cheeks bloom pink in every classroom. There were laughs, groans, and plenty of “Oh no…” moments—exactly the kind of fun and smiles we were hoping for!
Thanks for helping us create such a memorable day while supporting Prom!
