MOHAVE IS EXCELLING!

The Arizona Department of Education announced recently that Mohave has been awarded the highest label under AZ Learns, the state's accountability measure for schools. A three-year average on AIMS test scores is one part of the ranking process.
Congratulations, and thanks to the Mohave faculty and staff for their hard work!

YOU CAN HELP
Mohave provides food items and clothing for families who are having difficulties. Donations may be dropped off at the Mohave office, or in the office of Kathleen Koczka, our Social Worker. Clothing items should be new or gently used. The food bank program runs all during the school year. Welcome items are peanut butter, soup, cereal, toilet paper, soap, toothpaste, laundry soap, pastas, and canned goods. New socks and underwear are also welcomed. In addition, we are welcoming gift cards from grocery stores, Wal-Mart or Target. Thanks for your generosity!

Students are not to ride skateboards while on the Mohave campus at any time.
