Murray County High School is a public high school located in Chatsworth, Georgia. Part of Murray County School District, the school colors are green and white and the mascot is the Indians. In athletics, it competes as a Division AAA school in the Georgia High School Association.
The MCHS Department of Music is one of the most distinguished music programs in the State, having an award-winning choral and band program. The Marching Indians, under the direction of Mr. Mike Weaver, have performed all over the country, most recently at Universal Studios in Orlando, Disney World and the St. Patrick's Day Parade in New York City. Since 1958, the Marching Indians have been entreating fans with exciting, visually stimulating shows and their trademark deep, loud sound. Recently the Marching Indians received the Grand Championship at the 2008 Golden River Music Festival and won the first ever US101 radio battle of the bands receiving a concert by the Eli Young Band. Many students from MCHS Department of Bands have been involved with All District and All State bands as well as various summer clinics, orchestras and even the Georgia Lions All State Band.
