Congratulations to Mr. Dennis Carrabine who is retiring from MCHS after 28 years! Dennis worked as the Dean of Students, Assistant Principal, Physical Education and Driver Ed teacher. We are very thankful for his service! His family wanted to honor him for his hard work and dedication to positively impacting students in public education.

On #MinookaMonday, as the school year comes to a close, meet Aubrey Knight. She's the Director of Community Relations here at MCHS. Chances are you've received communication from her, talked to her on the phone, or heard her voice when you call the school. She manages our social media pages, writes press releases, plans special events, and more. Though she started at MCHS in August, she's lived in Shorewood with her husband and two children for the last 11 years and loves being part of the community. Aubrey graduated with her bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of St. Francis. 🧡🖤
Last week at the Board of Education meeting, student Maisy Kaplan was honored for her 3rd place finish at the IHSA Journalism State Finals. Way to go, Maisy! We also recognized four of seven of our retirees, Bob Tyrell, Melissa Hoffart, Frank Yudzentis, and Denise Johnson. Their service to MCHS is immensely appreciated. #mchsproud #mchsgrateful 🧡🖤

Thanks to Stroll Shorewood Estates for the amazing MCHS Dance Team highlight in the May edition! Our team placed 15th in the nation at Nationals under the leadership of Coach Melissa Wallace. We are so proud of all this team and program has accomplished this year! #mchsproud 🧡🖤
Mr. Maruszak's Yearbook class premiered their documentary that followed this year's book creation and all the students working hard behind-the-scenes. It was a sentimental look back at all they accomplished this year. The class also signed and added photos from the year to a guitar that they gifted (and surprised) to Mr. Maruszak. It was a nice surprise.
Ms. Elli Wilkey's Baking 2 students were tasked with creating an edible book fair. They created cakes that represent a particular book of choice. Here are a few examples that our talented bakers created! #mchsproud 🧡🖤
