Good evening Mountain Lion families and Happy Rodeo Week.

We want to start with a huge congratulations to our Mountain View Wrestling team and the coaching staff. The Mountain View Wrestling team captured their 2nd straight AIA D2 State Runner-up trophy this past weekend in Prescott Valley.  The Mountain Lions tied a school record with ten wrestlers earning all-state honors. The team was led by Gilbert Rodriquez and Chris Lopez, who both won the state title at their respective weight classes. With only one senior on the team, the future looks bright for the Mt. Lions! Congratulations!!

Our Grad Night committee is looking for help again this year. One of the ideas they need the most help with is the collection of gift cards. We are asking any and all families to help with our Grad Night event and bring in gift cards that can be used at our local vendors. If you are able to help please bring the cards to Ms. Sims in our counseling department. A big thank you in advance for your help with this great event.

In three weeks we will be hosting the St. Baldrick's event at Mountain View. The St. Baldrick's Foundation raises money for childhood cancer research. Our event is March 6th from 5-9 p.m. in our Old Gym.

Parents and Students, 

Office Hours for Mountain View are 7:00 AM to 3:45 PM

Students and Parents - The D-wing gate will be the only gate open in the morning, please pull forward to drop off your student. 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.

"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. 

"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.
