"When you’re a state champ, your legacy endures, your accomplishments are never forgotten, and your team’s hard work and success will long be celebrated." - Dr. Fidel Trujillo, 10/22/26 Mora HS hosted a reunion and celebration of the 1986 and 2016 Volleyball State Championship Teams.

Concrete work has been completed as part of the water pipe repair project at the main campus entrance. The construction area is marked off with barrels, cones and caution tape. This immediate area will be restricted until Monday, October 26 to allow the concrete to cure, unless we receive significant moisture, in which case it will be restricted until further notice. We anticipate the traffic detour plans to remain in effect through the weekend:

Buses only will enter through the Head Start gate, all other vehicles must use the egress lane, which is now separated by cones, for both campus entry and exit. Please follow the designated traffic pattern and drive cautiously.

Unless otherwise announced, we plan on resuming normal traffic entry and exit routes on Monday, October 26, 2026.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
