MAVERICKS Featured Teacher

Mr. Bradley Ward

We would like to congratulate Mr. Ward for being our featured teacher of the week. Mr. Ward is a great freshman English and AVID teacher. However, he is also our varsity soccer coach for the boys and the girls! He is always there to lend a hand or is there when you need someone to talk to. The biggest reason he was chosen is because of his great contribution to the Leukemia society. Mr. Ward has decided that he would donate all the money from his gumball machines to a young kindergartner named Mia Tamashiro. Mia is a kindergartner from Twin Oaks Elementary. She is in an on going battle with Leukemia and is going through chemotherapy. On behalf of the school we wish Mia a full recovery and thank Mr. Ward for his generous offer.

We would like to congratulate Senior, John Frazier Robertson as our Featured Student. As the captain of the boys varsity soccer team John is a dedicated, hard working player who enjoys MMA, Magic the Gathering, League of Legends, and collective swords. Do you enjoy Rugby? Although it is not yet a sport on campus at MVHS John is working hard to bring it to us. After graduation, John plans on enlisting in the army and attending Jr. college to obtain a degree in business.
