Following March 11th many students in Richmond and the surrounding counties will be receiving letters: either of acceptance or rejection to MLWGS. At 4:00 p.m., the administration will be overseeing the mailing of these letters.

Once the prospective students have received these letters, they will be able to learn about MLWGS by coming to shadow on 21-23 of March. Yeah for the new students!
