100 Years of Milton High School

MHS History Documentary

The MHS 100th Anniversary video is a documentary of the history of Milton High School from its establishment in 1921 through 2021. The video highlights and celebrates alumni and staff members who are representative of all those who have been affiliated with MHS through its first one hundred years.
