STANFORD ACHIEVEMENT TEST.
Scores on the Stanford Achievement Test (SAT) for students in grades 1-6 have been exceptional and stable through the years. A score of 50 indicates the national average and scores above 70 are considered indicative of high achievement. Over the past three years, the MH composite for all students has been an 84. Even more significant, the SAT report that charts the number of students scoring at or above expectations is consistently 93% or higher of the total school population.
ACT SCORES FOR 2009-2010.
Several students have already earned scores of 30 or higher on their ACT. Among the top scores reported thus far: Holly Allamel, Stephen Ambrose, Rachel Berry, Elizabeth Bruce, Gracie Garrett, C. K. Irby, Charlotte Muse, Ryan Nichols, Taylor Stults, and Randall Turner.
ELIZABETH BRUCE IS A 2009-2010 NATIONAL MERIT FINALIST.
Elizabeth Bruce continued the strong MH tradition in the National Merit Scholarship competition by earning finalist status. Elizabeth is the daughter of Chancey and Moira Bruce. She is active in the school's drama, chorus and forensics programs.
INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION IS THE KEY

Working with students on a one-on-one basis makes a big difference. MHBS faculty are committed to providing an optimal learning experience for each child.
