We would like to take moment to recognize our students who are involved in extracurricular activities for the winter season. Being a part of a team or club help students to develop important skills such as time management, teamwork, leadership, and communication. These skills are not only beneficial for academic success but also for personal and professional growth. Keep up the good work!


Here is an opportunity for students at the MOVTI to be involved! See flyer for information about E-Sports.
