Eagle HIGHFLIGHTS:
*MMHS Marching Band Competition: On Saturday, October 28th, the MMHS Marching Band competed in the Mt. Timpanogos Marching Band Competition at American Fork HS. The band placed First out of 11 bands in the 2A Division. They are also proud to announce that they received the highest score that the Maple Mountain Band has received since the opening of the school!! They were also awarded the Outstanding Visual Performance Caption and the Outstanding Colorguard Caption. They will compete at State this Friday in St. George. Way to go and Good Luck!!!
Other Important Information:
*Halloween Day, Oct 31st: Students may dress up in Halloween costumes but are not allowed to wear
masks or face paint, and must stay within district dress code. Happy Halloween!
*Accessing Student Grades and Report Cards: 1st Term grades are posted and we want to be sure you can
access your student’s grades. Here are three ways to access those grades and the report card.
1. Parents can log into your existing SIS/Aspire account: https://sisweb2.nebo.edu/Login/
2. Students can go to lab C207 (Mrs. Richins) to print a report card.
3. If you need an “official” report card for an insurance company, etc. parents or students can request one in the counseling office.
If you have never set up an SIS/Aspire parent account here is how to create one so you can access your
student’s grades any time of day, all year long.
1. Go to the SIS online page: https://sisweb2.nebo.edu/Login.aspx
2. “Request a User Name”
3. Enter “Student ID” (your student’s lunch number) and Birthday
4. Follow instructions from here. There is also a way to email forgotten passwords.
*ACT Prep Class: Registration is currently open for students who are interested in taking an ACT prep class. The next class will be November 4 and 11 from 8:00 to 11:30 a.m. The cost of the class is $50 and includes a preparation book. Sign up in the Finance Office. The class will be limited to the first 36 students who sign up. See your Counselor if you have questions about the ACT or the prep class.
*Attendance Information: The district Parent Link System that calls parents alerting
them of their student’s absences and tardies, was not working on Friday, Oct 27, and is
still not working today, Oct 30. Due to this problem, you will not receive calls, e-mails, or
texts regarding your student’s attendance on those days. Please check your student’s
attendance on SIS and contact the attendance office to get those absences/tardies excused.
If you have questions please call Mrs. Davis in our attendance office.
*College tours! We have partnered with SFHS to provide college tours for seniors on Wednesday, November 1, 2017. The tour is free, but students will need to bring their own money for lunch. Registration is on a first come, first served basis. Buses and suburbans will leave from SFHS, so students will need to arrange for a ride to and from their school. Students can pick up a registration form/permission slip in the Counseling Office.
If you have questions, please email Mrs. Robyn Dunn at [email protected] (Info flyer below)
*Utah College Application Week: November 6-10 is Utah College Application Week. Seniors will have the opportunity to complete college applications during their English classes on November 9 and 10. Counselors and some college admissions representatives will be available during those classes to assist students with that process. In connection with College Application Week, MMHS will be holding a FAFSA completion event on November 9 in the library from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Seniors and their parents are invited and encouraged to attend this event and complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. A college financial aid advisor will be here that evening to answer questions and assist families in completing the FAFSA.
*Athletic Physicals: Attention parents and athletes! Important information about physicals! Register my athlete has changed the dates of what we can accept for physicals. Instead of accepting a physical from 1 year to the day that the physical was given for, we now have to accept them for the school year. Meaning that any physical that was turned in last school year "expired" on May 31st. This seems unfair to those athletes who turned in their physical for a spring sport (last school year), so we are offering a free physical to any athlete that turned in a physical dated February 1, 2017- May 31, 2017. You just have to come and fill out a new physical form and see the doctor at our on-campus physicals. All student athletes will need a physical before being allowed to participate on a sports team. SFHS will be holding sports physical exams on campus in the Main Gym (Physicians will be in attendance for these exams). This is for anyone who needs a physical for participation in athletics (including try-outs) or can be done for other things such as scout camps etc. The cost is $20.00 cash or check unless your physical is one mentioned above then it is free. This money is a fundraiser for the athletic training budget and helps us purchase necessary items to care for our athletes! Paperwork can be completed ahead of time and is available online at: registermyathlete.com or can be filled out at the time of the physical. All athletes need to register on this site to try-out for a sport. If you have any questions, please contact Krista Prusak, our Athletic Trainer. You may also contact Krista at: [email protected] or 801-310-9987.
*MMHS GOLD RUSH WEEK (Nov 6-17): MMHS Student Council is sponsoring the Gold Rush/Food Drive Week to benefit Tabitha's Way in Spanish Fork. This is an annual tradition at MMHS, and in past years we have reached a goal of over 30,000 items of food for Tabitha's Way. We want to break the record this year!! We will be accepting donations from November 6-17 and students are encouraged to bring in food items or canned goods to their classes anytime. Student Council will also be involved with Hobo Thursday during lunch on Nov 2, Nov 9 and Nov 16 where they will be asking students for extra change that can help buy Thanksgiving dinners for up to 20 students who are needy within our school. Every donation is appreciated!
