Skylert Notifications
The District and all schools now have capability to send notifications about attendance, general messages and emergency alerts by phone, e-mail or text messages. All families should log on to Family Access to update their contact information and select preferred messages. Families will choose the phone number to which general and emergency messages will be sent (home, work or cell phone), with additional options for the message to also be sent by e-mail or text.
Preparing for Winter Weather
Winter weather brings road and driving conditions that might result in school delays or closures. Safety for your child is our primary concern. When winter weather impacts specific areas of the district, Limited Bus Transportation service areas may be announced. We try to make information available about school closure or changes to the school schedule by 5 a.m. Families should remember to check the Web site or call the District Hotline at 891.6001 for updated information about school operations.
From the Principals' Desk
Following the recent inclement weather, power outages, damaged trees, and missed school days, it feels great to return to our regular schedule and routine. We hope all is well with your family. Our counselors, Dyanne Jewett and Wendy Lubash, are always available if you need any assistance for your child or your family. Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have questions or need assistance. In addition to academic progress, the emotional and social health of your child is critically important to us.
As we begin a new semester - with students starting new classes and new grading periods – we encourage all students to remain focused on their class work and study skills. A new semester is a great time to set new goals for improving study habits, homework completion and grades. At Mountain View we have support systems in place to help students succeed. Encourage your child to attend Homework Enhancement on Tuesday afternoons, from 2:30 to 3:20 p.m., Wednesday mornings from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. and Thursday Tune Up from 2:20 to 4:30 p.m. each Thursday. All sessions are located in the library. Transportation, however, is not provided. We also offer reading and math intervention classes at all three grade levels. Please contact us if you would like to learn more about those classes and see if your child qualifies for further assistance. As always, we look forward to working with you and your child.
Sincerely,
Curtis Hurst, Principal
Tatia Holme, Assistant Principal
