The computer lab in room 144 of the Main Building is open during lunch everyday. Students are encouraged to drop by, check email, do some internet research or write a paper.

The PSAT will be given on October 15th from 8:20 AM to 11:30 AM in assigned rooms at Pirate Hall. The PSAT is the only way juniors can enter into the National Merit Scholarship contest. The PSAT is also excellent practice for the SAT. The cost is $13.00, please make checks out to Marshfield High School. Juniors can sign up for the PSAT at the Main Office with Mrs. Harrington before school and at 3:15 p.m. by October 3, 2008. Sign-up early as there is a specific number of exams that were ordered and so testing spots are available on a first come first serve basis. Oregon Department of Education will pay for any sophomore, who would like to take the test this year, sophomores must see their advisor to sign-up. There will be a PSAT workshop scheduled during advisory time and will be announced in the future. If you have any further questions ask your counselor or advisor.

Attention drivers: Many of the streets surrounding MHS are part of a residential parking district. Parking in this district during school hours is restricted to residents, who are issued a permit by the City of Coos Bay. MHS parking permits are not valid off campus. The restricted areas are clearly marked by signs, and if you choose to park there during school hours you may receive a parking citation by the City. Also, please be aware the City Council has recently approved an increase in the base fine and a graduated increase in fines for subsequent violations. If you have any questions please see Officer Labrousse.
