Student Schedules
- In order to view your child's schedule, you must first review and acknowledge several important forms (ie: Code of Conduct, Media Release) on the Parent Portal.
- Every effort was made to fill all 7th and 8th grade Related Arts requests; in some cases, requests could not be filled and students were scheduled for alternative selection(s).
- If your child has yet to select Related Arts courses, please contact Mrs. Toth via email as soon as possible so that their schedule can be finalized.

Important updates from the Health Office
Greetings Mountain View families!
I sincerely hope you are enjoying your summer vacations with family, friends and loved ones. I look forward to seeing your children on August 31!
Just a few helpful and friendly reminders for the start of school:
Student Athletes in Grades 6/7/8 PLEASE REFER TO MY WEBPAGE FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING FORMS FOR SPORTS PHYSICALS. All sports forms are due to Mrs. Austenberg by Monday, August 31, including Medical Eligibility Form and Health History Update form (if needed). The Comprehensive Sports Form in the Parent Portal must be completed in August along with the other required forms for the 2026-2027 school year. See the Student Athlete Information page for instructions on submitting the appropriate paperwork. Dr. Porter will be clearing all sports physicals on Thursday, September 3.
Incoming 6th Graders MUST have documentation regarding required immunizations turned in before the first day of school. Please refer to my previous emails regarding the same. If we have spoken/emailed regarding your child, I have kept notes and am aware of summer MD visits. Thank you in advance for reaching out to me if you have not already done so. Please drop off a record of immunization to the main office once your child has received these vaccines.
Epipens/Inhalers/Medication Drop Off: I will be in my office starting August 26 to receive all medications and required forms. Please consider having your PCP fill out the OTC medication form found on my webpage if you wish for me to administer Tylenol, Advil, Benadryl or other OTC medications during the year.
New and/or Changed Health Concerns: I appreciate you reaching out to me at any time to make me aware of any concerns you have regarding your child so that I may best care for them during the school day.
Wishing you a happy and healthy rest of your summer!
Kind regards, Mrs. Austenberg : )
