Good evening Mountain View family,

This was a very special day at Mountain View. For the first time since March, we were able to welcome our students back to campus. It felt great seeing our students walking around campus, talking to each other, learning in front of our teachers and getting back to normal. We want to commend the students for following the mitigation plan and working with our staff to ensure that our safety protocol measures were being followed. I especially want to recognize our incredible teachers as well. Today was a huge challenge for them and they did an incredible job. As one said earlier this morning, they felt like they were performing a juggling act – some kids in the classroom and many kids on a Zoom – but they performed admirably.

One thing students may find different when they return is that the District is allowing teachers to bring their own child(ren) to their classroom on days when their child(ren) are scheduled to be remote learners. This was an accommodation that was examined extensively. As we are committed to balancing the needs of families in the District, we are equally committed to the needs of MUSD teachers in their role as parents.  Making this accommodation for our teachers will minimize their need to take personal time for their own childcare needs.

We will continue to work through the challenges presented to our teachers, staff, students and parents but I do know that we can do this successfully if we work together. Have a great week and keep Mountain View in your thoughts.

College, Career, Counseling   

Dear Parents/Guardians,

As we transition to In-Person Hybrid Learning, the Counseling/College and Career Center (CCC) wanted to share our Safe Return Policies and Procedures.  

In order to best support your student's learning and safety, we believe that limiting non-emergency in-person visits to the Counseling Office is required. Emergency/Crisis situations will be seen immediately in person.

Emergency Situations (Seen Immediately) 

  • Student in emergency/crisis situations or dealing with anything that is making class impossible to attend will be seen in-person immediately 
  • Remote students in emergency/crisis situations, should call 520-579-4450 during school hours
  • Life-threatening situations please call 911

We are here to support your student(s) and we will have many opportunities for zoom or phone call appointments during non-instructional time or after school hours (1:55-3:00). Students can make these appointments by using the appointment links shared in their "Class of" Google Classroom.

Non-Emergency Situations (virtual appointments) 

  • Questions about courses and credit
  • Graduation planning
  • College/career planning

College Career Center:

  • Students should email Ms. Wray with questions in regards to Financial Aid, Scholarships, FAFSA, or College and Career Planning
  • Students are encouraged to make Zoom or phone appointments
  • As the CCC is in a separate and isolated building, students may schedule an in-person appointment with Ms. Wray
    • Must have teacher permission, and are encouraged to have meetings during non-instructional time

We believe that this policy will provide mitigation for students and staff during this period and ultimately provide a safe environment for all. We will continue to monitor and adjust this policy as we continue in Hybrid Learning and beyond.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at (520)-579-4450.

The College and Career Center is open and ready to help you and your students plan for post high school.
