Happy New Year! Welcome back to the 2024-25 school year! We're all excited to be back together! Our great leader, Dr. Horton's theme for  the district is "New levels, New Heights",  with that in mind; here are the key areas of our focus:

  1. Instructional Leadership: Foster a culture of continuous improvement and excellence in teaching and learning.
  2. Data-Driven Decision Making: Utilize data to inform instructional practices and to address the diverse needs of our students.
  3. Professional Development: Ensure that teachers have access to ongoing professional development opportunities that align with the toolkit's principles.
  4. Student Engagement: Implement strategies that actively engage students in their learning and promote critical thinking.
  5. Collaborative Practices: Encourage collaboration among teachers, staff, and stakeholders to support student success.
Additionally, I want to encourage our parents, community stakeholders to actively participate in our school programs to support our unique learners. At Margaret Harris,  we pride ourselves in fostering an environment that promotes a positive culture where teaching and learning is our key priority.  Together, we will make this  year,  a Happy New Year!

Wanda Morgan
School Counselor

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year here at MHCS. I am a new friendly face to Margaret Harris Comprehensive School, and I hope all our families had a fun relaxing summer vacation.

It’s my hope this school year will be full of successful academic, social/emotional, and life enriching moments for our families, students, staff, and community partners.

As a school counselor it is my goal and pleasure to promote a sense of social emotional wellness here at MHCS for our students by providing services that meet their unique needs. Instilling support for our teachers is a paramount task that I look forward to as I help them meet their wellness needs and the concerns of their students. Lastly, aiding our families by offering knowledgeable referral assistance for other programs and or services in the community will be a cornerstone commitment.

Let’s have a GREAT SCHOOL year MHCS 2024-2025!!!
