Thank you all for a great year!
Now that final grades are in, this is another reminder that MHHS Summer School registration is open and ongoing. Please sign up for classes ASAP because classes are filling up.
The link for registration can be found here:
High School Graduation Eligibility
Any class with an "F" should be repeated.
Four Year College Eligibility
Any class with a "D" or "F" should be repeated. Only classes in which students earned a C or better count towards four year college eligibility.
This year’s courses in most subject areas will be held in an online/blended format where students will be able to complete the work at their own pace. Math courses will be face to face and will meet four days a week. The number of courses completed depends on student motivation and dedication to complete the work. Initially students should limit their registration to a maximum of 2 semesters of coursework. Upon completion of this work, they may have the option to register to recover additional credits during the 6 weeks of summer school. Courses at summer school are open to currently enrolled high school students.
Courses Offered
Below are the classes, that will be hybrid online and blended- mostly online, once per week meeting with the teacher-
- Global Studies

Important Information
Students may only make up credits in classes where they have received a D or F.
Credit will be awarded to students who complete all online coursework and who attend their regularly scheduled appointments with teachers.
Summer School teachers are available for assistance Monday-Thursday from 9:00am to 1:00pm. Students in blended/online format courses must meet with teachers at least once each week to assess progress in the course. At this time teachers will help students set a pace for their learning so they can be successful. Students in face to face classes must attend four days a week.
Students are allowed to recover as many credits as needed over the summer, however a typical summer course load should allow a student to recover at least 10 credits, or 2 full semesters of high school work.
Course work credit will replace credits where students received a D or F.
A request for $50 per 5 credit course (one semester) is suggested given the absence of available state funding for summer school programs. We are pleased to be able to offer these courses and are in great need of assistance to continue offering credit recovery.
Attendance Regulations
Students must attend summer school on the first day of school, June 6, 2016 at 9:00 A.M. for an orientation. Students will then be assigned official weekly meeting times.

School Regulations
All rules and regulations of the regular school year apply to summer school. Disruptive behavior and other behaviors that do not follow school and classroom rules are not permitted. Students not following school and class rules will be sent to the office. This will be recorded as an absence. A student who violates Education Code 48900 (i.e. fighting, drugs, smoking, etc.) will be suspended and dropped from summer school. Students dropped from summer school will receive no grades or credits.
Student Dress Code
The Board of Trustees believes that appropriate student dress is necessary to maintain order, provide a safe and productive learning environment and promote discipline. Dress that draws undue attention to or detracts from the educational process is unacceptable. Shoes must be worn at all times. Hats, bare midriffs and inappropriate shorts are not allowed.
