Family Day - A Day to Eat Dinner with Your ChildrenTM
Whether you’re cooking a gourmet meal, ordering food from your favorite take-out place or eating on the go, rest assured that what your kids really want during dinnertime is YOU!
Family meals are the perfect time to talk with your kids and listen to what’s on their minds. The more often kids eat dinner with their families, the less likely they are to smoke, drink or use drugs.

Concerned about a student's possible drug or alcohol use? Talk with MHS Chemical Health Specialist Nancy Olson-Engebreth (952-401-5740). You may call on behalf of any young person in the community who may benefit from her assistance - Nancy will meet with the student and reveal only that a community member has expressed concern on their behalf. All calls are strictly confidential and will not affect a student's academic record or athletic eligibility.
