Year at a Glance
Viewing Grades in Canvas
Many of our teachers use Canvas to keep grades as the features in Canvas are much more advanced and user-friendly from a teacher's perspective. As parents, you can "pair" with your student on Canvas so you can keep track of progress as the term goes along. Please check out the video below for instructions to "pair" with your student, or give us a call in the office and we will walk you through it.

Anonymous Tip Reporting: If You See Something, Say Something
MVHS, along with all other Vista Unified schools have an anonymous tip line (see the button below) where all stakeholders (students, parents, staff, community members) can report dangerous behaviors on, around, or related to our campus. Tips reported are completely anonymous (unless the user shares his/her name), and VUSD and MVHS administrators are alerted immediately. In order to keep our school community safe, we ask all stakeholders that if they see something, say something, and the tip line is just one of many ways to do that.
