The MHS family came together to create colorful Christmas piñatas. Dr. Franco and her students sang in Spanish and broke open the Star-shaped piñata. Students also learned the symbolism behind the tradition. The piñata represents the Star of Bethlehem, the points represent the seven deadly sins, the bright colors symbolize the temptation, the blindfold represents faith and the stick, the will to overcome sin. ¡Feliz Navidad! 🪅 🌟 🎄

Engineering students in Mrs. Keesee's class started a community service project to help a sweet foster dog who was hit by a car recently. This particular pup, Dobby, is only 3lb 2oz and no longer has the use of her back legs. The doggy wheelchairs on the market are too heavy for Dobby to maneuver. These students are designing and printing a 3D model doggy wheelchair for Dobby. Dobby paid the class a visit so the students could collect her measurements. We can't wait to see how this project turns out!
