What an amazing year for Student Council! 16 student-led events! We couldn't be prouder. We thank our seniors with hugs and best wishes, and loved meeting some of our new officers at the 2nd Annual Meet & Greet!
The Seal of Biliteracy means that a student has shown second language abilities in speaking, reading, listening, and writing. 9 student in Honors Spanish IV achieved this, and 15 other students received Commendations meaning they passed at least two of the four subsets. Of those 15, 14 passed three of the four subsets. This is a testament to all their hard work and tenacity. We are very proud! Seal winners: Tayla Brown, Lily Oberle, Mia Frieden, Naomi Roth, Brianna Schroeder, Trevor Heil, Jenna Campbell, Evie Morris, and Addison Armistead
Our MTHS Class of 2026 seniors (and the legendary Ethan Kizer) volunteered today (their first day off of school) at the annual GH Laps for Life event to support St. Jude! Germantown students raised over $41,000 for St. Jude. Way to go GH! It is our pleasure to help in this event each year. ❤️🖤
Students in English II have enjoyed diving into one of William Shakespeare's best works, "Julius Caesar". Beware of the Idea of March! Thankfully, it is May. 😎

Kaboom came to celebrate MTHS seniors heading to Bradley University… I came for the pets.
But here’s my advice: choose a college where you feel welcomed, celebrated, and take opportunities, enjoy the moment, and celebrate the journey

Our Metamora Dance Teamspent some time off the floor and in the classroom this week! These talented athletes headed over to Northmoor Primary School in Peoria to serve as guest readers and mentors.
It wasn’t just about the books—it was about being leaders and showing these young students what teamwork and dedication look like.
Thank you, ladies, for being such incredible ambassadors for MTHS. You’re proof that leadership happens both on and off the stage!
MTHS 2026 Yearbooks can still be ordered while they last. They are now being sold on a first come/first serve basis until we run out as we now have a set number ordered. There are still some available but order ASAP before they are taken. Yearbooks will come in when school starts and extras may be availalble but it is not guaranteed. We are currently not sold out but we have sold out in recent years.
