 | Principal's Message Good evening Mountain View family, This morning we opened up the Mountain View College, Career and Life Skills Center. The feeling we had watching our students enter the new building and see the classrooms and other facilities was priceless. Our hope for the CCLSC is to meet the needs of every Mountain View student and family. From our exceptional students to our Career and Technical Education students to our College program, we want to provide the supports needed to help our students achieve their post-high school goals. With the new building open, we encourage all of our students to eat lunch either in the learning hallway or the patio space. We are also looking at ways to support our families with the morning drop-off at Mountain View. We do understand that the front lot is extremely busy and you can end up sitting in the front lot for a few minutes. We are opening the service drive on the west edge of campus. This is for one-way traffic heading from Linda Vista south along the driving range and exiting into the Arthur Pack parking lot. We ask that parents that use this route drop off behind the New Gym and continue toward Thornydale. The construction project on Thornydale will be ongoing and will also impede egress from our lot regardless of which route you take. The latest we have heard is this construction project, completed by Pima County Department of Transportation, will be completed in January. That is obviously subject to change. The first week of school was fantastic at Mountain View. We were very excited to see our students as they returned from break, eager to learn, and get right back into their routines. Our students seem very comfortable with their Chromebooks now and are confident in their digital educational opportunities. With all of the changes we have seen in the last few years regarding learning and instruction one thing remains – "Education is learning more about who you are and how you contribute to making the world a better place." – David Guerin Have a great week. Thank you for your continued support of Mountain View and please come visit our new building. Please be sure to join us for Open House on Wednesday. Please see the attachment for more information.

A Note from the Attendance Office
When a student's absence or late arrival may be excused, the parent/guardian should communicate with the Attendance Office so that the absence or late arrival will be appropriately recorded.
"STUDENT ABSENCES"
In order to request that an absence be excused, the parent/guardian must call and leave a message on the Attendance Line within 24 hours of the absence. The Attendance Line voicemail is available 24/7 at 520-579-4444. If a "request to excuse" message is not received, the attendance clerks will attempt to contact the parent/guardian so they may properly record the student's absence(s). If no response is received from the parent/guardian the absence(s) will be recorded as unexcused.
"STUDENT LATE ARRIVALS"
Unless excused, a student's late arrival(s) are recorded as "Unexcused Tardy/Late". If a parent/guardian would like to request that the late arrival(s) be excused, the parent/guardian must either come into the school with the student and provide the late excuse to the Front Office staff, or call the Attendance Line voicemail at 520-579-4444 and leave a "request to excuse" message for the late arrival. Please note: the Attendance Office does not contact parents/guardians regarding late arrivals. |  | College, Career, Counseling MVHS Parents/Guardians and Students, MVHS counselors and the College and Career Center, will be meeting with all of our senior students during the week of August 20th through their English classes. We will be discussing their post-high school plans, graduation status, and sending them home with a senior letter and senior to-do list. A copy of both items will be mailed home as well. We encourage all MVHS students to get to know their counselor as soon as possible. The more we know about them and their future plans or any concerns they may have, the better we can help. If your student would like to make an appointment with their counselor, please have them see Ms. Sims in counseling.
