One of our beloved alumni students, TJ Wennhold, lost his life in a tragic accident on Wednesday January 15th.

TJ and his parents Melinda and Bill Wennhold were valued members of our Mountain Oaks community. TJ was a beautiful, kind, loving and caring person. He had recently earned his EMT certification in addition to having successfully completed the Volunteer Firefighter Program in Calaveras County during his junior year in high school.

Services are scheduled for Saturday, January 25th at the fairgrounds. We do not have a time frame right now.

Bill and Melinda are asking for privacy at this time. They have a designated liaison, Don Young, Fire Chief San Andreas.

Sheri Sedler from CCOE is available for grief counseling for any of our students in need of extra support during this time.

Take Care, Kathleen

Annual Survey and Annual Retreat

It's that time of year again, where we ask all of our parents to take a few minutes to complete the Annual Survey. This information is used to help us improve the school and for WASC accreditation. You can scan the QR code on the flyer or use the following link: to access the Parent Survey: https://forms.gle/UwJPA6qVkdK57pW6A. Please complete the survey before January 20th so that we have time to gather the data and present it at the Annual Survey. We also want input from our high school students. We are requesting all high schoolers to complete the High School Student Survey by January 20th. You can access the QR code on the flyer or use the following link: https://forms.gle/4TYikRfqfFx6iYBcA

Our Annual Retreat is on Monday, January 27th from 8:45-3:00 at the San Andreas site. We are hoping all parents and high school students can attend. This is the one time annually that we all get together from all 3 sites. This is a very important meeting to discuss current issues that affect the school and to make plans for the upcoming school year.

Lunches

Just a reminder that if you signed up for lunch and are not going to be on campus to get lunch please let us know before 11:00 that day. That way we have time to inform the cafeteria lady and she won't prepare the food. Just today alone we had 11 out of 18 students not show up for the lunches they ordered. That is a lot of wasted food. At some point, it could become an issue and we could lose the hot lunch program and only be able to offer shelf-stable lunches to our families. Posted 11/12/24

Restroom Vape Sensors

Dear Mountain Oaks Community Members,

We have recently installed vape sensors in the All Gender Restrooms and the Student Restrooms in the gym hallway. These sensors will alert staff when anyone is smoking or vaping in these restrooms. Anyone who is seen leaving the restrooms after the vape alert (cameras are in the hallways) can face investigation and potentially discipline.

Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding the vape sensors.

Thank you, Kathleen Lewis, Administrator
