The positivity and willingness of MHS students to connect in creating a school community that welcomes freshmen and reaches out to underclassmen, is unifying. The senior girls chose “good vibes” as their shirt slogan for the year. Throughout the summer, students of the MHS Leadership Council gave tours to families of freshmen, and staffed a registration for the upcoming school year. The Peer Mentor Program ensured that freshmen and international students could have ongoing support within the school. Students organized an orientation to acclimate freshmen to life at the high school, providing them with an understanding
of how the school works and with familiar faces of high school students they could talk with. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors arrived early on the first day to point freshmen in the right direction when navigating the halls.
At the 2017 Club Fair, students and faculty created a vibrant forum for learning about ways to get involved. The Marblehead High School community continues to develop as a group of students, teachers, faculty, and administrators who collaborate to impact the school as a team sharing “good vibes.”
