Semester Exams

Semester exams for MTS will be administered during the week of Dec. 5-9. Any make-up semester exams will be administered Dec. 12-14. Students should make sure that all exams are complete and any missing course work is turned in before leaving for the break. This is important because instructors will submit final grades before leaving for the break.

Wallace State Field Trip

I wanted to remind our seniors who will be visiting Wallace State on Tuesday, Dec. 6 that everyone will need to arrive at MTS via the morning tech bus. We will depart at 8:15 and return to MTS by 2 p.m. so that everyone will be able to ride the afternoon tech bus back to his/her high school. Albertville students who are unable to ride the morning bus will be responsible for providing their own transportation to MTS. Also, please remember to bring money for lunch.

Well done med prep!

Marshall Tech is pink each year during the month of October due to MTS' medical prep program and its support for breast cancer awareness. Medical prep raised almost $1,000 to help pay for mammograms for those in need through an array of activities such as a volleyball tournament and penny drop. The annual "pink glove dance" is always a huge success! Great job Nurse Peppers and your students for the work you do for this worthwhile cause!

Congrats Robotics team!

1st Place - Marketing Team

Congratulations to the Marshall County Robotics Coalition, which is a combined team made up of Marshall Technical School and Brindlee Mountain Middle School robotics teams! The team finished second overall at the Northeast Alabama Robotics Competition. The team's marketing team won first place and the team won first place for spirit and sportmanship. A special thanks goes out to MTS robotics instructor Mr. Glenn Bruce for the incredible effort and hours he puts into this competition each year for his students. His teams have been incredibly successful through the years and we are very proud of our teacher and students!

MTS seniors will also have the opportunity to visit Wallace State career tech programs on Dec. 6.
