On October 10, 2024, MHS welcomed additional visitors. Trained canines were on site to enhance student safety by detecting firearms, narcotics, alcohol, and other potential threats. Notably, students were enthusiastic about interacting with the dogs and requested permission to pet them. We received numerous positive comments from students expressing appreciation for the increased sense of security provided by their presence.
