1. XL is serving a Super Snack after school in room S-11. All students are welcome to stop by and get a fresh healthy meal.

2.  All students sent to the Library must have a pass from your teacher and a student ID in order to check out materials. Many students are using copies of schedules or post-its. Please do not go to counseling and request a copy of your schedule as it will not suffice in the check-out process. It is your responsibility to carry your student ID. Replacement IDs are $10 in the Counseling Office.  Please see Mrs. Herrera.  Thank you, MWHS Library Staff
3. Freshmen will no longer be allowed to pick up food from vendors or go to the ice cream truck.  Per district policy, freshmen are not allowed to leave campus.  Freshmen, please do not order food because you will not be allowed to go past the gate to pick up the food.  Students in grades 10-12 will only be allowed to pick up food ordered IF you present a student ID at the gate and you are clear to leave campus.  Without a student ID, you will not be able to go passed the gate.  If you are scanned and you have fees or lunch detentions, you will not be allowed to pick up your food from vendors.
4. California Scholarship Federation (CSF) is accepting new members this week only, before school and at lunchtime in room I-9.
