We’re just under a couple of hours away from the launch of the NASA/SpaceX Crew 8. Pilot Michael Barrat, CHS class of ’77 and friend of the MST program, is strapped in and ready to go. On a trip to NASA in 2018, we had the rare treat of getting to visit with him and receive a private tour of his NASA workspace. What an experience! Safe Journey, Crew 8!

Thank you for your patience with the shuffling of our admissions timeline. See below for the revised dates and deadlines for this year’s CHS MST Magnet admissions process. Our application is live, but we recommend students learn about the program by visiting the MST Admissions Portal and attending our info night webinar before rushing to submit an application. There is no advantage to an early submission of application.
About once per semester, MST parents band together to provide lunch for the MST staff and students to help build community between grade levels while sharing a meal. All evidence suggests that this last Wednesday’s lunch was a rousing success. Thank you to the MST parents who helped to organize, provided food, and cleaned. Much appreciated!
Due to various factors, we are having to reschedule our webinar parent/student info night to later next month, exact date and time TBD. We will also be pushing back the dates for testing and teacher submission of recommendations to accommodate the new date for the informational webinar. Stay tuned for more info and specifics to be posted to our website and social channels.

Each December our freshmen and sophomore students present their 1st semester project study progress to a panel of staff and program graduates. It’s one of the highlights of our year, as graduates returning home from college, grad school, work, get to spend time with family and friends and also reconnect with our program and help give feedback. After formal presentations from the students, our grads participate in a panel where they share their post-high school experience with us. This is one of the three panels that took place in our three presentation rooms. If you watch the video of the grad panel, be sure to turn on the auto-generated subtitles to help you “hear” what they’re saying. (Room #2 Panel & Room #3 Panel)
