Good evening Mountain Lion family,

Today, we begin opening up our Performance Tasks to our Freshman, Sophomores and Juniors. As we shared in prior messages, this will be an activity that encompasses multiple standards and will provide students with differing methods to demonstrate their acquisition of knowledge. All year long we have spoken about student engagement and we hope that this activity excites and engages our students.

Yearbooks will be distributed once they arrive on campus. If you did not yet purchase a yearbook you can use this link to buy a copy: https://az-marana.intouchreceipting.com

A quick reminder, as well, that we have been turning the lights on in our stadium each night at 8:20 p.m. (20:20) and leaving them on for 20 minutes to honor the graduating class. When the lights go off at 8:40 p.m. our PowerCat lights up on the tower in the middle of campus. The PowerCat remains lit until 10 p.m.

And, as has been shared a few times, we have placed an order for yard signs for our Class of 2020. Once the yard signs have been delivered to campus, the administrative team, teachers and staff will be canvassing our community and placing the signs in the yard of each of the members of the Class of 2020. We were able to secure one yard sign per graduate. Should you want or need more we can provide information for ordering. We are hoping for the signs to be delivered to Mountain View on May 8th.

Please know that we are well aware that none of these acts will replace graduation for our senior class. We continue to search for ways to celebrate and honor the Class of 2020 and will do so until we are able to have a ceremony, in person. We truly want to celebrate these amazing students. However, we do have some VERY EXCITING NEWS for our CLASS OF 2020!!!! This week we will send out a "Signup Genius" for our seniors to sign up for a 5 minute time slot and be celebrated!! Our seniors will come to the auditorium at Mountain View for their chosen time slot and we will collect their Chromebooks, hand them their diploma and then walk them to the stage for photographs. Once you complete your photographs with your family we ask that you depart campus and allow for the next senior to arrive. We are very excited to share this moment with you and your family.

Our District and school are proud to announce another way we plan to pay tribute to our Class of 2020!

With this said, we have a request for each of our senior families…. will you please send us a picture of your senior?

While we are unable to conduct a graduation ceremony, in person, at this time, we continue our commitment to celebrate and recognize our seniors through a special Mountain View High School Tribute to the Class of 2020 video! The video will be released on Tuesday, May 19, 2020 at 5:00pm. 

Please follow the steps outlined below:

  • The photo can be a senior picture or a picture in cap and gown. No selfies. Only appropriate images will be included in the video. 
  • Upload the photo at https://magmod.typeform.com/to/hztF9W
  • The deadline to submit photo is Friday, May 1, 2020.

By submitting photo, the parent/guardian agrees to have their student's name and photo included in the video that will be released in May on the District's YouTube channel and shared via email, on the District's and school's social media channels including Facebook and Twitter, and on the District and school's Websites.

As of today, we have 64 of our seniors photos submitted.

Thank you for your attention to this. We look forward to sharing this special video and to celebrating together as soon as able.
