One of the heart touching events we saw from the VMHS Class of ‘19 Is called “The Senior Walk”, where those seniors who graduated from nearby Lisa J. Mails ES returned to LJMES proudly wearing their VMHS graduating caps and gowns for the younger student counterparts and their former teachers to see and share. From what we learned, The Senior Walk tradition has gone on for some time at LJMES, and all who participated found great joy in the experience. We as MVES alumni parents, as well as those continuing parents with younger siblings,...(and friends), would gladly love to see that same experience begin and be shared as a new tradition at Monte Vista, beginning with the Class of 2020. We please ask all of you to kindly consider this request to allow Bronco seniors to return to their Mountain Lion roots, as a joyous final celebration and an inspiration to the younger (and future Bronco) students. Listed below are names/signatures of MVES parents and alumni students who would like to begin The Senior Walk at MVES for the upcoming school year 2019-20, Class of 2020.

We, the Bronco/Mountain Lion parents and students, would like to thank you and the entire MVES teachers and staff for preparing and guiding us during this lifetime journey together. Without all of your support, our celebration would not be as fulfilling, as we all proudly exclaim ... “Monte Vista students rule!”

The momentum behind this request proves that our community is finished waiting for school leadership to acknowledge this tradition. It is time for the administration to stop dragging their feet and give these seniors the walk they have clearly earned.

My 3 Houchen grandkids have been students there & I’ll support whatever their parents & the school wants. It is a great school!

This would be so special for the kids! My daughter is at the high school now and she would love to go back and see her old teachers one last time.

Yes!!! I am so glad to see this! I was waiting till school started to approach our PTA to push for this. It’s such a great tradition we Mountain Lions shouldn’t be left out of!

My eldest JUST had his first walk last year and I have to say it was a fabulous memory! It almost didnt happen at LJM and I am SO happy it did!!! Seeing these kids that he attended school with from the 2nd grade (because that's when we moved here) was not only adorable but exciting. ALSO all the elementary school kids were excited that they too will graduate eventually, FInally, DMMS also opened their gates for the walk. Middle school can be a trying time for emotion and stress and any moments to be able to positively motivate as peers should always be a goal for our children. Let these seniors hold their heads up high and be proud to display their caps and gowns of achievements, hard work and determination to the next generations!!!! LET THEM WALK!!!!
