Senior “To-Do’s” List: There are several items that seniors need to stay on top of leading into graduation. Applying to scholarships is important to not forget (information in the HS hallways). A graduation requirement is to complete a FAFSA form for possible federal financial aid. Be sure your emailing to Ms. McDonough or printing off your proof that it was processed. Students should be finishing up on their status for “college readiness” through the TSI test, ACT, SAT or College Bridge Program; this is very important to complete! Informing Ms. McDonough of any and all colleges that students have applied to so that a transcript can be sent to complete admissions files is a MUST!

Students that do not live in the district must have a transfer form turned in by May 22 and approved through Mumford administration to attend school here. This is a yearly agreement. Please be sure you have read over the form including expectations and reasons for denial or revocation of your child’s transfer and that is completed and returned to Mumford. Only students currently enrolled in Mumford should be on this form. If you have questions about this form, did not get a form, or are NOT planning to re-enroll at MISD for the 2025-26 school year, please contact the office.
