Dear Class of 2028,
Welcome to Mounds View High School! We are so excited that you are entering this new and exciting phase of life. The next four years will be filled with growth, discovery and change.
The first month or two may feel overwhelming as you navigate new buildings, classes and faces. Know that other students, teachers and staff have gone through this before and are all here for you.
Academically, high school is more challenging than middle school, but do not be afraid to embrace the struggle and growth that will come with it. Grades are certainly important, but not the end-all-be-all.
High school will also provide you insight into what your passions and values are. Mounds View has a wide array of opportunities that will help you explore your interests. Take classes that will challenge you, and join activities that in- terest you. Do not be afraid to branch out and explore new things. You may dis- cover that you enjoy something you never thought you would like.
Immerse yourself socially. Attend school events and join sports and clubs. These are some of the best ways to meet new people and make new friends. You may also discover that friends or friend groups will change, and that is completely normal. Surround yourself with people who uplift you and make you happy, and try not to get too caught up in conflicts.
Most of all, remember to have fun. These four years may seem like a long time, but they will fly by before you know it — just ask any senior. Cheers to a great
