[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1991 alum here. I went to school w a Senator’s son and Congressman’s daughter. Donald Reagan, US Sec of Treasury lived down the street. We trick or treated at football Hall of Famer Sonny Jorgensen’s (who had a kid or two there). We weren’t rich and while I do remember “the other side of the highway” was less well-off, I think they were still mainly non immigrant families? Thinking of friends, mainly all white from all over the boundaries. Overall it thought it was a good school - we had winning sports teams, a fabulous marching band, great music and theater programs… it was small then too- less than 400 in my graduating class — the administrators seemed to know us (the assistant principal had a couple of kids there at the time). Sooo many years later—Sounds like demographics are way different. [b]Hope they still have the MV Pride![/b][/quote] Yes, there is still MV Pride. We are a 2nd generation MV family and know many other students who have one parent (sometimes both) who graduated from MVHS. Yes, test scores are low, there is a high number of ESOL and FARMS students. But if you take advantage of what MVHS offers, you can be very successful. Contrary to the bashers on this board, MVHS is a hidden gem.[/quote]
