Attention Parents of 8th Grade Students
Please plan to attend Mounds View High Schools Enrollment Information Night on Monday, February 4th. This evening is an opportunity for you to learn about Mounds View High School and ask questions that will help to inform you and your student as they transition to high school.
The large group presentations will begin at 5:30 PM and 7:00 PM in the MVHS commons area and auditorium. To accommodate our space, we ask that families whose last names begin with A-L attend at 5:30 PM and those with last names M-Z attend at 7:00 PM.
Following each presentation:
- Teachers and deans will be in the lower commons to answer questions about seminar, placements and early college.
- Coaches and advisers will be in the upper commons to provide information on co-curricular opportunities.
- The Mustang Lockerroom (school store) will be open for business from 4-8 PM.
- Shelbi Eckman, Registrar, will be available in her office from 5-8:30 PM for any questions about your student’s record, contact information or ParentVUE.
- Mustang Mentors will be available for building tours at 6:15-7:00 PM or 7:45-8:30 PM.
We hope to see you on February 4 and look forward to having you as a member of the Mounds View High School community. Welcome Class of 2023!
