On Saturday, Sept. 17th, 2022, a group of six members of the MVHS Outdoor Challenge Club headed up to Natural Bridges National Monument for a hike through a spectacular section of White Canyon. The excitement started with an ascent of the infamous “Moki Dugway” which switchbacks its way 1000 vertical feet from the Valley of the Gods to the top of Cedar Mesa. This road is enough to strike terror into the heart of the average tourist, but not so the trusty KUSD bus drivers! Our hike began with a descent of 500 feet in less than a mile. That puts you at the base of the Sipapu Bridge, the second largest natural bridge in the world, after Rainbow Bridge. The canyon had seen some recent flash floods so there was a lot of mud and even some running water. After about 2.5 miles in the canyon you come to Katchina Bridge. We stopped here for lunch. Now it was time for the climb back out of the canyon, another 500 vertical feet in less than a mile. We had the advantage of a bus driver who met us with the bus at the Katchina Bridge overlook. If you are on your own, it is a mile hike from here back to where we started at the Sipapu trailhead. By mid-October this hike will be even more spectacular as the cottonwoods and aspens start changing color. Good job to the participants. and a big thanks to our bus driver! Richard R. Ludwig M.Ed.

Congratulations Joseph Rodriguez for being nominated for April Student of the Month. Joseph Rodriguez is a very talented and gifted student and I’d like to nominate him as MVHS’s student of the month. Joseph is a student in my Honors Biology class and he has maintained superior grades while also actively involved in school sports and activities. Based on Joseph’s grades, attendance, interpersonal skills, and class participation, I’d rate his academic performance in my class as exceptional. Not only is Joseph an outstanding student when we are in-person but he also participates in activities during zoom lessons, demonstrating a desire to learn, modeling leadership qualities, and excellent communication skills. His upbeat demeanor and can-do attitude brighten the classroom and contribute to him being a model student. Joseph has a number of strengths to offer. He demonstrates a very capable academic ability by being diligent in completing his assignments and contributing to in-class discussions and labs. Besides being actively engaged in Biology class he is also involved in other school activities, i.e. wrestling, cross-country, track and field. -Tatum Davis
