Midland Trail Craft Fair 12/6/2025 from 9am-3pm.

Each Tuesday we will be highlighting a "Future Career" of a current student at MTHS. We will begin our series today with our Student Body President.
Meet Saelyr Wilson, Future Lawyer!
In the future, Saelyr intends to pursue a degree in political science with the hopes of going to law school after obtaining her undergrad. While she is currently awaiting admissions and ultimately undecided on where she is going to college, she hopes to go to somewhere that will challenge her academically and provide her with ample opportunities to get involved, as community service is a top priority. After school Saelyr looks to have a career as a defense attorney and help those that she meets understand the importance of being given a fair chance, even despite your circumstances.
