Students are encouraged to experience another important aspect of student life through involvement in one of the many student clubs and organizations, fine arts programs, including music, drama and visual arts, retreats, community service and campus ministry programs.

The MUHS athletic program is one of the most successful in the state, not only in terms of accomplishments but – and more importantly – in participation. Annually, 60 percent of MUHS students participate in a sport. This level of participation emphasizes our commitment to providing ample opportunities for student participation. While the MUHS sports program is competitive, it is also the school’s philosophy to include as many students as is reasonably possible. Therefore, there is at least one no-cut varsity sport in every season and there are two freshman teams in multiple sports. There also are club sports and intramural teams available to students based on their interest.

The mission of the MUHS Parent Network is to be a vehicle of communication that provides support for parents through education and networking. The Parent Partnership is a program where parents are encouraged to financially support the school by helping make up the difference between tuition and the actual cost of educating an MUHS student.
