Mansfield High School (MHS) is a four year, comprehensive public high school located in Mansfield, Massachusetts.
Mission Statement: According to Mansfield High School's website, their mission is to, "...promote the intellectual, aesthetic, emotional, physical, and social development of our students..." To do this, Mansfield High School has designed a "broad-based curriculum" and has "a dedicated faculty and staff" to promote each students' development across each of the five areas previously mentioned. The combination of an effectively focused curriculum and a faculty devoted to teaching the students allows each student "to become [a] lifelong learner who can contribute to our ever changing society."
Courses: Mansfield High School offers a wide variety of courses, in addition to the so called “core” classes. Standard classes in English, Math, Social Studies, Foreign Language, and Science are offered, but that is just the tip of the ice berg. In every department there are courses that go above and beyond helping to not only gain the interest of students, but to teach them real life skills for college and every day living. Also, MHS has a set of advanced placement courses that allow students to begin their college education while still receiving high school credit. Below is a list of the advanced placement, and most notable courses.
Class Rank: Class rank is determined by calculating a student’s course-weighed grade point average over an extended 4.0 scale. Rank is calculated once a year, with the rank calculated after a students sixth semester (junior year) being reported to colleges. Valedictorian and Salutatorian are determined by calculating class rank after the completion of a seventh semester.
Rank is calculated by first converting a final grade to the 4.0 scale, then weighting it depending on what level each course taken is at. That average is then multiplied by the number of credits a student earned and then divided by the total number of possible credits for the course. This result is the students’ weighted GPA. This process is repeated for each class and then the sum of all class GPAs are averaged to result in an overall GPA.
Athletics: Mansfield High School offers athletic programs in the fall, winter, and spring. All sports have junior varsity and varsity levels and the heavily participated sports have a freshman level as well. Mansfield sports teams are known as the hornets and uniforms are colored green, white, and silver. In recent years, the athletic complexes around MHS have been revamped, and an artificial turf football field was put in along with a rubber track, dubbed Alumni Field. The Football team is one of the state's most successfull. They have held the Hockomock League Champion tile for the past four years.
Fall: Cheerleading, Cross Country, Field Hockey, Football, Golf, Soccer, and Volleyball.
Winter: Basketball, Cheerleading, Gymnastics, Ice Hockey, Indoor Track, and Wrestling.
Spring: Baseball, Softball, Lacrosse, Tennis, and Track and Field.
Note: Field Hockey, Football, Volleyball, Basketball, Baseball, and Softball have freshman level teams.
