Goal for Mesa Verde High School
My goal for Mesa Verde High School students is to believe in their cause for education by becoming life-long learners. It is my hope that all students will feel accomplished, prepared, confident, and safe in our extraordinary learning community where teachers, staff, and students are actively engaged in making excellence happen every day. Lastly, my hope for the Maverick Nation, is to pursue healthy and active lifestyles, become critical thinkers, and be fully engaged in setting goals for the direction of their learning.
