As we wrap up another great week, I want to take a moment to tell you how proud we are of the effort you have shown this year. Whether you have been preparing for exams, competing in athletics and activities, or simply continuing to show up and do your best each day, you have represented MPHS well.
Now we enter the final two weeks of the school year, the last “official” week for the Class of 2026! This is the time to stay focused, study for EOCs and final exams, finish assignments, and make the most of every opportunity that remains. The finish line is in sight, but these last days still matter. How you finish says a lot about your character and commitment.
As Usain Bolt said, “I trained four years to run nine seconds, and people give up when they don’t see results in two months.” Keep pushing, keep working, and finish these last two weeks with purpose and chaMP pride. And don’t forget to show up in your Athletic Wear tomorrow for a week well done!!!
Let’s continue to make good decisions and end this school year strong. We believe in you, and we cannot wait to celebrate all that you accomplish in these final weeks. Finish strong, MP!
Go Dogs!

Our MP Principal's Student Focus group got a chance to meet Governor Kemp at our final meeting of the year today. This group has been such an integral part in providing student perspective and feedback on ways to make MPHS a great place for all students to learn, grow, and succeed. It has also been a way to grow leadership and self-advocacy skills, and leaders of this group used these skills to introduce themselves to the governor and asked for a photo. Very proud of how they represent MP. CHAMPS!

Today, our senior Education Pathway seniors participated in the Teach in the Peach Educator Signing Day in Atlanta. Our MP seniors were 5 of the 2026 attendees that have committed to a career in education to support the next generation of students.
We are so proud of these CHAMPS and cannot wait to see the lives they will shape in the future.

Thank you to New Providence Baptist Church for providing breakfast, and Momentum Christian Church for providing a special cool treat for our staff today. MP appreciates our local churches and their support of our staff!

As we wrap up another week, we want to take a moment to recognize some great things that have happened this week. In varsity athletics, baseball and girls tennis made it to the playoffs, girls golf and track and field are headed to state, and boys soccer is headed to the Elite 8. We have had students win state awards and scholarships, and successful events like HOSA’s spring blood drive and the opening of Guys and Dolls. And we had another great week of CHAMP behavior to cap it all off!
Looking ahead, we have important academic milestones coming up with EOC and AP testing beginning next week. These assessments are an opportunity to demonstrate what you’ve learned and how far you’ve come this year. We encourage you to stay consistent in your preparation, get plenty of rest, and approach each test with confidence.
Every day matters, and your effort makes a difference. Enjoy your athletic wear tomorrow for a week well done!

Have a great rest of your week, and keep up the great work, CHAMPS!

Thank you to MP Student Council for sponsoring donuts for our staff today! CHAMPS!


Thank you to MPAC and Forsyth ChikFilA for sponsoring today's treats for our teachers! We love our local businesses and our MPAC team!



What a great week! Weeks like this don’t happen by accident, and it says a lot about the effort you’re putting in each day. When the end of the year begins to creep in, it can be really easy to not put our best foot forward, or to not make good decisions. It is always important to remain committed to being a CHAMP until the end-courteous, honorable, accountable, motivated, and prepared.
As we look ahead to next week, MP will be celebrating our Teacher Appreciation Week. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to give a little kudos to the teachers who invest their time, energy, and care into your success each day. A simple “thank you,” a kind note, or a thoughtful gesture can go a long way in letting them know how much they are appreciated.
Remember:
“Gratitude turns what we have into enough.” — Aesop
Let’s keep showing up like CHAMPs each day, and also take a little time to recognize those who are supporting you along the way. Enjoy your Friday of Athletic Wear, CHAMPs!

We want to take a moment to recognize each of you for a fantastic first week back from spring break. You have returned with focus, energy, and a commitment to excellence that truly reflects what it means to be a CHAMP.
We are especially proud to share that, through your collective efforts, you raised enough funds for charity during Sweet Week to earn an extra Athletic Wear Day. Well done! This is a direct reflection of your generosity and school spirit.
To celebrate, you will be able to participate in Athletic Wear Day on Monday, April 20th if you continue to demonstrate CHAMP behavior through the end of the day tomorrow. Let's finish the week strong by showing consistency in your actions, attitudes, and accountability.
As a reminder: "Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out." Keep building on the positive momentum you've created this week.
Thank you for representing our school so well. Go Dogs!

It’s been another great week at MPHS! Sweet Week is in full swing, and our CHAMPs are doing an incredible job raising money to support local charities. Remember, if we reach our goal of $1,000, there will be a principal’s reward for everyone, so let’s keep the momentum going!
“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” - Winston Churchill
While Sweet Week is about giving back to our community, it’s also about understanding the true meaning of giving. Giving goes beyond simply sharing what you have; it’s about showing kindness, empathy, and compassion for others. When you take time to help someone in need, whether through your time, effort, or resources, you make a real difference. Even the smallest acts of generosity can create a ripple effect, inspiring others to do the same. Learning to give now helps build strong character, strengthens our community, and reminds each of you that you have the power to make a positive impact.
Tomorrow is Color War Day, so represent your grade with pride! Be sure to wear your Athletic Wear as well; you’ve earned it! Let’s bring the energy and school spirit to our Spring Pep Rally as we head into Spring Break.
Have a great Friday, and Go Dogs!
