This past Friday and Saturday was the MSBOA District IV Solo and Ensemble Festival at Novi High School. There were 96 individual performances within 38 events this year with our combined MHS, LHS and IA West students!
Our students received medals for 93 out of 96 performances! 85 of these were Superior Ratings (I), which is the highest rating! 8 were Excellent Rating (II), which is the next highest!
97% of our students medaled, while an incredible 89% of our performances received Superior ratings. This is absolutely incredible. Over the last 2 year trend, we've gone from approximately 50% receiving Superior to almost 90%. In addition, our participation has gone up 150%.
Congratulations to these outstanding students from all 3 of our programs. ALL of the Superior Ratings awarded qualify for State Solo and Ensemble next month!



Wellness Week was a huge success! Thank you to all the students and staff that participated and especially our student support staff for putting this on!


This week the University of Detroit Mercy came to visit with interested students in the Career Center.


Exciting news for Milford High School! 🌿✨ Big congratulations to our amazing student support staff, Reece Ohmer, Paige Riley, and Lauren Leege, on being awarded a $500 grant from the @MilfordGardenClub! This grant will help bring a hands-on experience to our Spring Mental Health Seminars, where students will have the opportunity to plant their own mini gardens to take home. Gardening is more than just planting flowers; it serves as a powerful reminder of how we can nurture our own mental health with care, patience, and growth.
Stay tuned for more updates on this meaningful project! #MilfordHS #MentalHealthMatters #GrowThroughWhatYouGoThrough

We would love to see you all support our students by taking part in the spirit week theme of each day.

Today seven former MHS AP Calculus students from the classes of 2023 and 2024 visited this year's AP Calculus class to offer advice on AP exam strategies, and college and career planning, particularly in STEM fields. It was so generous of them to wake up early on their first Friday morning off after their university exams to share their wisdom with MHS students. Their insights were very helpful to the current seniors in AP Calc!
