On Wednesday, November 22, MSMHS held the final day of its annual spirit week event, with competitions involving students from all grades.

Due to the unexpected weather, this year’s Shark Bowl game was canceled. Instead of the game, students took part in a longer pep rally with more games, including musical chairs, pie eating, cornhole, and a lip sync battle.

Students came in early in the morning to decorate the school in their class colors for color wars. Seniors were navy blue, juniors were white, sophomores had red, and freshman decorated in yellow.
