MHS is a cost-free, private, coeducational school in Hershey, Penn., for children from families of lower income in grades pre-k through 12th-grade. The school provides a positive, structured home life year-round giving children the skills necessary to be successful in all aspects of life.

Following a free meal and presentation, attendees—especially children—will have a chance to ask questions and talk with MHS staff during this informal get-together.

*To be considered for enrollment, a child must come from a family of lower income, be from the ages of 4-15 years old, and be free of serious emotional and behavioral problems that disrupt life in the classroom or home. Enrollment is not guaranteed and prospective students must demonstrate the capability to benefit from the programs the school offers. Children are accepted year-round through a rolling admissions process.
