Mountain View Weekly Update

Announcements & Updates

- TREP$ returns to Mountain View! TREP$, short for entrepreneurs, is an educational program which teaches children about entrepreneurship. Weekly workshops are facilitated by Ms. Decker, teacher advisor. Each Workshop includes a fun business challenge in which students participate as teams. Meanwhile, students work at home to write business plans, create advertisements, and fine-tune their product development. They then launch their businesses in a flea-market style "TREP$ Marketplace" where each student creates a display for their products. Customers from the school community come and spend real money for real products. TREP$ will run on Thursdays starting the week of October 15, concluding the week of December 16. To sign up, click here.

- Per Board of Education policy 6145, students must maintain passing grades (minimum 63%) in all classes to participate in Interscholastic Sports. Grades will be checked on October 4, the midpoint of the fall season, and those students who do not meet the criteria will be ineligible to participate in athletics until their academic performance improves.

- Attention 8th grade parents: Please refer to the email from Mrs. Lanka sent earlier this week for information regarding Morris County Vocational School and applications to private high schools.
