Hello Mohawk MS & HS Families,
In effort to improve our systems and programs we have a new sports registration system! This will streamline information and make things more efficient for our Athletic Department and families. Please accept our apologies if you have already registered in the old system. We greatly appreciate those that did, as it has helped tremendously in the planning of our upcoming Fall Sports season. Again, we do apologize for the inconvenience, but we need all athletes to register through our new system! Please register as soon as possible. Once your athlete is registered we will confirm that their Sports Physical is up to date and they are eligible to start official practice on time. We will be emailing all athletes that need a new Sports Physical in the next couple weeks. Please register now at

Mohawk Athletic Department is seeking members to form a Mohawk High School Hall of Fame committee. The committee will meet annually to nominate and induct former Mohawk HS athletes, teams, coaches and administrators that meet the committee's criteria. If you are a coach, volunteer, booster club member, or Mohawk HS alumni and are interested in serving on this committee, please contact Athletic Director James Tharp: jtharp@marcola.k12.or.us . Additionally, if you know someone that you think would be interested in serving on this committee (particularly those members of the community that coached or attended Mohawk in 1976 or before), please share this with them.
The first meeting for this committee will be on Tuesday, June 11th at 5pm in the HS Commons. Our goal will be to form a committee, elect officers and begin the process of nominating and inducting the first class of Mohawk High School Hall of Fame members before the start of the fall season 2024.

Hey, Mohawks! Earlier this school year, we enjoyed a visit from Eugene Symphony Master Concert Violinist, Ms. Searmi Park, and Composer, Mr. Michael Djupstrom. Recently, they sent us this cool pic to let us know they enjoyed their visit, think of our awesome little community often, and....GO MUSTANGS!
Here, you see both Mr. Djupstrom and Ms. Park at Ms. Park's local mustang sanctuary, and Mr. Djupstrom rocking some sweet MSD swag.
