MVHS Parents/Guardians and Students,
MVHS counselors and the College and Career Center, will be meeting with all of our freshmen students during the weeks of August 27th & September 3rd through their English classes. We are excited to get to know them better and introduce them to some important places and people on campus.
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.

Tempe Union High School is hosting the following two events.
• The HBCU Parent/Student Advocate Night is held in partnership with the HBCU Student Fair that morning at Phoenix College.
• The "What Do We Want?" Night is a chance for seniors (and families) to get tips from three selective universities/scholarship programs about what makes up good (or not so good) essays and letters of recommendation. The information presented will help students applying to any selective program, not just these three.
