🎃🍬 WOW, MASCOUTAH… WHAT A NIGHT! 👻🚗
Our Mascoutah High School Air Force JROTC cadets and Beta Club members absolutely knocked it out of the park with this year's Trunk or Treat! 💜🖤
With nearly 40 decorated cars and trunks, creative costumes, plenty of candy, and an incredible amount of Halloween spirit, our students came together to create an unforgettable evening for HUNDREDS of our littlest Mascoutah Indians! 🎃🍭
What makes this event so special isn't just the candy or decorations. It's watching our high school students step up, give their time, show their creativity, and make a difference in the lives of the younger generation.
👏 To our JROTC cadets and Beta Club members: You should be incredibly proud of what you accomplished! Your enthusiasm, teamwork, and commitment to serving others were on full display.
💜 To our Mascoutah families: THANK YOU for coming out and making this event such an overwhelming success! Seeing all those smiling faces made every bit of effort worthwhile.
THIS is what community looks like. THIS is what student leadership looks like. THIS is MASCOUTAH! 💜🖤

🎃Happy Halloween! 🎃
MHS Chemistry students enjoyed some very spooky science to celebrate the holiday. Their teachers (and the Spirit of Science) showed off lots of fun flames and even carved a pumpkin without using a knife!
Science: it's like magic, but with safety goggles. 🥽

Mascoutah High School is proud to celebrate the achievements of its students who earned academic honors from the College Board National Recognition Program. In 2026, the program offered three awards to students of all backgrounds and across schools nationwide: First Generation Recognition Award, Rural and Small-Town Recognition Award, and for the first time, the School Recognition Award, to honor top-performing students in every high school, including lesser-known schools. This year, 15 students at Mascoutah High School were awarded. We’re incredibly proud of our students and to see them recognized for their dedication and excellence. The recognition serves as a signal for colleges eager to recruit awardees and as an opportunity for communities to celebrate students. Congratulations! (Some students not present for photo)

🐝🌻 MHS Ecology Club Visits Bee Humble Farm! 🌻🐝
The MHS Ecology Club spent a sweet afternoon learning about beekeeping and the important role honeybees play in our ecosystem at Bee Humble Farm!
Students learned how an apiary works, explored the daily tasks involved in caring for bees and collecting honey, and even got to sample some of the delicious fresh honey!
Students also explored the surrounding area while learning about native wildflowers and how they help provide essential food for our local pollinators.
A huge thank you to Bee Humble Farm for welcoming our Ecology Club and giving our students such a hands-on and tasty learning experience!
