Donations to the Alumni Association are always welcome and help to continue to support the “Cash For Class” fund – that gave each Mayville teacher $100 for classroom supplies in 2022; the “Supply Closet Fund”, which gave $500 to each school to help buy supplies that are handed out to students as needed; the “Scholarship Fund” which currently awards a graduating senior $1000 for higher education costs, and the "General Fund" that helps pay for items like the webpage and offices supplies and printing of the Reunion Social programs and Golden Diplomas. Use the handy DONATION FORM that can be found at the top of the Historian PDFs page. Or if you prefer, just mark your check for the fund you want your donation to go to and mail it to: Mayville Alumni Association, PO Box 312 Millington, MI 48746
The Mayville High School Alumni Association invites all MHS Alumni to the annual Reunion Social to be held on Saturday June 17, 2023 at the High School auditorium. There will be a “Meet & Greet” beginning at 3:30 with refreshments, followed by a short program. All Alumni and guests are welcome to attend. Donations will be accepted to cover the cost of refreshments, and no one is required to pre-register. The 2023 Historian paper will be available for purchase for $5 per copy. Proceeds from the sales of the Historian will go to the Supply Closet Fund.
2023 marks the 136th year of the MHS Alumni Association. This year the Class of 1973 will be recognized as the 50-year graduates and the Class of 1998 as the 25-year graduates. The Alumni Association will also welcome the newest Alumni members, the Class of 2023, as well as present the Norm Duncan Memorial Award and the 2023 Alumni Scholarship.
Due to changes in the past years, there is no longer a sit-down meal before the program. There are several contributing factors and the biggest being the cost of renting tables and chairs and hiring a caterer. The other change beginning this year is that the attending 50-year graduates will not be required to pre-register as in past years.
The Alumni Association Board has also made the decision this year not to take orders for the Historian paper, due to the board being short-staffed. The Historian paper, which had its beginnings in 1993, will be available for purchase at the Reunion Social. It may also be viewed here on the Alumni website and can be found on the HISTORIAN PDF page, where there will be a PDF of the current issue of the Historian to download and print, once it is published, as well as the last 10 issues of the paper. For those who do not have access to a printer, any print store or library that offers printing can download the PDF from the website and print it out.
There are several openings on the Alumni Board and without volunteers to fill these openings, the future of the Alumni Association as well as the yearly Reunion Social will be questionable. The Board has an opening for Secretary/Treasurer and for members-at-large. If you are interested in serving for a year as part of the Alumni Association Board, please contact us through the website or by email at one of our email addresses: Mayville.alumni@yahoo.com or mhsalumni2019@yahoo.com .

I am the 4th/5th grade special education teacher here at Mayville. My career started as an Art teacher, so I know the importance art can have on a student's social emotional learning, communication and problem solving skills among other things. With your generous gift of money, my classroom purchased art supplies and snacks. I am attaching a picture of some winter penguins my students made with the supplies! They also enjoy a daily snack in my classroom. Thanks so much!

Elementary Special Education Teacher
Thank you so much for the $100 for my classroom. I was able to get bins and tubs for our reading area. We have done a couple cooking activities. And, I purchased some snacks for the kids in the classroom.
