Principal Williams' Message

Here at MCHS, our scholars are rewriting the script and setting the stage for a new era of healthcare leaders. We believe in breaking barriers, telling our stories, and staying true to the rhythm of hard work and ambition. Our scholars are at the heart of this movement, mastering the skills to not only succeed in college and careers but to remix the future of healthcare.
 
We create a vibe where every scholar's voice matters, every beat of effort counts, and every step forward brings them closer to greatness. With collaboration, commitment, and resilience, we build a community that thrives on innovation and equity. Together, let’s turn up the volume on opportunity and inspire a generation ready to heal, lead, and transform the world. Let's go MCHS scholars!

The New York State Seal of Biliteracy (NYSSB) is an award that recognizes high school graduates who have achieved a high level of proficiency in speaking, reading, and writing in one or more languages in addition to English. It is awarded by states and is marked by a gold seal on the diploma or transcript. The seal validates bilingualism, which can provide advantages in the job market and for college admissions. We have MCHS graduates who have earned NYSSB.

Personal Internet and Non-Internet Devices

Distraction Free Learning

Personal internet and non internet enabled devices (such as cell phones, smartwatches, headphones, earbuds etc.) are collected at the start of the school day and returned at dismissal to support focused, distraction-free learning. This policy aligns with NY State law and helps protect instructional time, foster safety, and reduce disruptions. Families can always reach scholars through the Main Office in case of emergencies.
