Social Media- Follow us
Connect with us on social media @MahwahHS
We communicate and showcase “Thunderbird Happenings” at Mahwah High School with the community using social media. Twitter is a free social networking site that enables its users to send and read messages known as “tweets.” Tweets are text-based posts, 140 characters or less in length, displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. Followers may choose to read tweets on the Twitter site itself or have them delivered to their phones and other wireless devices via text message.
Our building and our classrooms are sharing their work with our community through their respective Twitter accounts. While the district uses a variety of social media platforms to communicate with our families, Twitter is a centralized location where a bulk of our in-district happenings are showcased to the outside community.
@MahwahHS is used to disseminate useful information about MHS (i.e. accolades, reminders, dates of school events, etc.) and other valuable resources instantaneously. The best part is, once you have signed up to “Follow” the updates, you will receive these messages instantly to your Twitter page, as well as your cellular telephone (standard text rates apply) if you elect to receive messages on your cellular telephone.
