MHS SUPERHERO| Warren Watkins is ready to have an awesome senior year!! He provided a lot of enthusiasm for the first week starting Tuesday, Seniors' first day back - don't dare a country boy to drive a tractor to school - it will probably happen.
Then he finished off the week as our very own superheros - Batman and Clark Kent - a.k.a. Super Man.
Special thanks to Warren and his mom, Kristi, for providing the seniors with a Senior Survival package.
Way to Go Warren!!
