The mission of MHS is to serve, nurture, and educate all students to be empowered and socially conscious individuals, who are critical and analytical thinkers, prepared for career and higher education in a global society. This mission is actualized as a result of the Morningside vision which is," Morningside High School students are productive citizens and life-long learners who are responsible, high-achieving, well-rounded, and technologically prepared for the 21st Century."
