MVHS - HOME OF THE MUSTANGS!
From the Principal…. Hello Mustang Families, As you know, the past weeks have been one of sadness and heartache. The loss of Stephanie Carlson and Bridget Giere, two vibrant young ladies with much of their lives still left to be lived, will leave a hole in our hearts forever. Yet, over the past several days, I have been reminded that from the depths of despair, great promise, hope and kindness are often found. The manner in which our students, families, staff, and greater school community have come together has been the most amazingly overwhelming demonstration of humanity I have witnessed in my professional career. I wish that I could personally thank everyone (I have certainly tried), but please accept this message as my personal word of thanks for all the support that has been granted to the students and staff at Mounds View High School. As we proceed through the coming days, weeks, and months, I would ask that we continue to support Sammy Redden as she recovers from her injuries sustained in the accident. Sammy is a wonderful young lady and we are hoping and praying for Sammy to rejoin her Mustang classmates as soon as she is well enough to return. In closing, our world has been transformed over the past week, and while we will never forget Stephanie and Bridget, we will soon return much of our focus to the work of teaching and learning. Until then, we will continue to support one another and I once again thank you all for the outpouring of love and support.
