The musical, written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. The show was originally written and staged in Chicago and is set in 1959 at fictional Rydell High School, which was based on Taft High School in Chicago and named after rock singer Bobby Rydell. The story follows working-class teenagers, known as Greasers, and their peers, as they navigate friendship, love, and teenage rebellion. Familiar songs include “Summer Nights,” “You’re the One That I Want,” “We Got Together,” and “Greased Lightning.”
We invite all new National Honor Society members and their families to the Induction Ceremony on Wednesday!

5. Makes you laugh and have fun

The name of the game is "Nuclear Quest!" Chemistry students are playing a board game to learn about nuclear reactions, alpha decay and beta decay! Who will win the opportunity to name their own element at the end of the periodic table?
Mr. Lazarz and Mrs. Harbourn toured FLSmidth, the company that took over Excel, and met with several of the staff members. Thank you to Mark Bozarth and Augi Tudela, both MCHS graduates, for the tour and opportunity to learn more about the company. We even ran in to Connor Allen, a 2022 graduate, who is pursuing a career at FLSmidth.
MCHS is looking to partner with FLSmidth in the future for potential co-op opportunities for seniors. We are super excited to see how this unfolds and are looking forward to sharing these opportunities with students for the 2023-24 school year. As we work out the details, we want our students and Raider families to know we are always working on opportunities for students in all career paths! Stay tuned for more details!!
