Other Important Information:
*Accessing Student Grades and Report Cards: 1st Term grades are posted and we want to be sure you can
access your student’s grades. Here are three ways to access those grades and the report card.
1. Parents can log into your existing SIS/Aspire account: https://sisweb2.nebo.edu/Login/
2. Students can go to lab C207 (Mrs. Richins) to print a report card.
3. If you need an “official” report card for an insurance company, etc. parents or students can request one in the counseling office.
If you have never set up an SIS/Aspire parent account here is how to create one so you can access your
student’s grades any time of day, all year long.
1. Go to the SIS online page: https://sisweb2.nebo.edu/Login.aspx
2. “Request a User Name”
3. Enter “Student ID” (your student’s lunch number) and Birthday
4. Follow instructions from here. There is also a way to email forgotten passwords.
*Attendance Information: Parents -- If your student checks out early or comes in after
school has begun, please remind them to stop by the front office to sign in or sign out. This
helps us in tracking the classes they have missed. Please understand that signing in or out
does not automatically excuse a student’s absence! A parent or guardian still needs to
contact the school to excuse their student. As always, please contact Mrs. Davis in our
attendance office if you have questions or concerns.
MMHS School Musical
The MMHS Fine Arts Department is gearing up for the performances of
the Maple Mountain High School fall musical, Seussical. The show
performs on November 10, 11, and 13 at 7 PM, with a 2 PM matinee on
Saturday, November 11 in the MMHS auditorium.
Seussical is a high energy show built around several familiar Dr.
Seuss stories. This musical tells the story of a young boy who
doesn’t fit in so he uses his imagination to escape to places where he
feels safe and normal. Watch as the mysterious Cat in the Hat leads
JoJo through stories of elephants and clovers, one-feather-tailed
birds, family, loss, hope, and finding your place in the world.
Tickets are $6 for students and $8 for adults and are available at the
door.
The cast will also be holding a special storytime before the 2 PM
performance on Saturday, November 11. We are calling it Seussapalooza
and anyone can come to hear the cast read Dr. Seuss stories, play
games, and learn a section of choreography. This event is free of
charge, and those who learn the choreography will be invited on stage
after the matinee performance to dance on the stage with the cast.
*FCCLA Members! Come bowling with us and Utah County FCCLA at our annual Region 4 activity! There
was a mix up in the flier that went out! The time for this event is from 6-8 PM, NOT 4-6. Meet at BYU Bowling
Alley. Contact Emily Eggleston or Mrs. Knotts for carpool information or with any questions.
*MMHS GOLD RUSH WEEK (Nov 6-17): MMHS Student Council is sponsoring the Gold Rush/Food Drive Week to benefit Tabitha's Way in Spanish Fork. This is an annual tradition at MMHS, and in past years we have reached a goal of over 30,000 items of food for Tabitha's Way. We want to break the record this year!! We will be accepting donations from November 6-17 and students are encouraged to bring in food items or canned goods to their classes anytime. Student Council will also be involved with Hobo Thursday during lunch on Nov 2, Nov 9 and Nov 16 where they will be asking students for extra change that can help buy Thanksgiving dinners for up to 20 students who are needy within our school. Every donation is appreciated!
