Academic Block Award

Many of you are familiar with the Block Letter Patch that is obtained by students after they are involved in participating in a Varsity Sport at our High School.  These patches are typically sewn onto a letterman jacket or sweater so that students can show their school pride, and show the pride of their accomplishments that include other pins, patches and awards they receive throughout high school. 

What you probably don't know is that students can also receive a Block Letter Patch for their academic achievements.  Students who consistently obtain a 3.5 GPA or higher and participate in other activities like leadership, community service, sports, or academic teams can be eligible for this award as well.  Obtaining a Block Letter during high school represents a significant achievement on one or more areas of curricular, co-curricular and extracurricular activities. 

Students who wish to obtain their Academic Block Letter should review the criteria for the block letter and determine if they meet all of the criteria for the block letter.  The criteria for the block letter can be found on our website under the "Academics" heading.  For your convenience, the link can be found HERE.  https://tinyurl.com/mh-block-info

Once you review the criteria, please follow the link on the web page to fill out the application to receive your block letter.

The first time students are eligible to apply for the academic block letter is after their Sophomore (10th grade) year.
