Dear MVRHS Community,
Happy November! Given the abundance of school-wide information that is shared with students and families on any given week, moving forward you will be receiving one weekly email (and text message if you’ve opted-in for text communications) with announcements for the current week. Please understand that at times we may need to send additional time sensitive or class-specific communications, but overall this change will reduce the number of MVRHS emails in your inbox!
We want to keep our students, staff, parents/families, and community members informed and connected. Please share any feedback, suggestions, or recommendations for improving MVRHS communications using this form. Thank you!
