| A Community of Empowered, Innovative and Engaged Citizens |  |  | Principal's Message Good evening Mountain Lion family, I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and had a chance to enjoy the tremendous weather. Unfortunately I think that was the end of our spring and we will soon be missing those temperatures. However, as the heat turns on outside it brings us closer to graduation and our celebration of our senior class. This morning we had the opportunity to meet with our Class of 2019 Top Ten. This group of students is destined to change the world and we have been fortunate to have a front row seat to their current accomplishments. Each year in the spring we interact with a number of our graduating students. We are awed by the stories they share and by the goals they have set for themselves. We know it takes more than a village these days to raise children but we also know that our community does a great job at this. We raise some of the finest in Arizona and are truly proud to call them Mountain Lions. This is our last week of AZ Merit testing. Our teachers and students have responded well to the challenges presented by the block schedules and having visited our classes have been witness to our teachers making the most of the extended time. Next week we will return to normalcy with regards to our schedule as we head toward the 2019 Prom on April 27th. Have a great week and holiday weekend. Todd Garelick Principal Mountain View High School (520) 579-4427 |  | Things to Know From the MVHS Front Office, AzMERIT and AIMS testing begin Monday April 1st. Please see the attached class schedule.

| A Community of Empowered, Innovative and Engaged Citizens |  |  | Principal's Message Good evening Mountain Lion family, We completed our book study last week with our teachers at Mountain View. This has been an exciting spring and we are looking forward to the implementation of the ideas we learned about from our book next year. As we shared earlier, the book we read was Grading from the Inside Out by Tom Schimmer. Should you have interest, our administrative team would be more than willing to sit down and discuss the book with you. Our first week of AZ Merit testing is in the books. We have two more weeks of testing with a modified schedule and then we will be back to normal operations. Our students did a great job last week and we are hoping for more of the same this week and next week. Thank you in advance for making sure your child has plenty of sleep and a good breakfast before testing. Our next meeting with the Class of 2019 will take place on Monday, April 29th, at 10:15 a.m. in the auditorium. Though we will continue to communicate through social media, emails and letters home, we also wanted to make this available to parents to attend and learn more about our graduation ceremony. We hope you have a great week and thank you for all you do for our students and for Mountain View.
