A Community of Empowered, Innovative and Engaged Citizens Mountain Lion Monday Principal's Message Good evening Mountain Lion family, We enjoyed Prom 2019 this past weekend. Congratulations to Ms. Anderson and her entire group on a very successful and fun night. The night was festive, our students looked fabulous and it seemed everyone had a great time. Today was our second Class of 2019 Senior Meeting. Some of the important points we addressed included:  Graduation is fast approaching – make good decisions and avoid being involved with something that will take away your chance to walk with your classmates Sign up for the Graduation Walk that will happen on May 17th College Signing Day is also May 17th, and more information will be available soon Senior BBQ is on May 16 near the football field 30% of our Seniors have NOT ordered their Caps and Gowns This is an exciting time for the seniors but they also need to keep committed to the process and finish strong. This is a time to enjoy the last few weeks of high school, spend extra time with friends, take in each and every moment – but also keep focused on school work and being prepared for final exams, AP tests and all of the other things we throw at them to finish the school year. Three Mountain View students attended All-State this year. Adrian Jimenez, with the clarinet, was in the all state band and Sam Herschler also made all state orchestra as 2nd chair clarinet.

Students without a Zero Hour will be allowed on campus at 8:00 AM. Students arriving late after last bell will need to go to the front office to enter campus. With our increased security measures, students being picked up early need to enter the office near the library rather than the back office doors.  Please do not park in the first 10 stops in front of the JTED building. Those are reserved for the preschool. Also, please do not make any U-turns in that area. Parents: Just a friendly reminder that any ill student that needs to go home must report to the health office before calling a parent. They can call their parent from the office. We will not send passes up if parent arrives before the student reports to the health office. Student may ask their teacher for a health office pass. Parents, if your child is ill and you call them out as such, please keep them home. This will keep the germs from spreading.  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.
