Mayfield High School is a comprehensive high school offering students the opportunity to explore both academic and technical objectives. Our 2 x 4 block schedule is designed to meet the needs of a truly diverse student population.

All students at Mayfield declare a focus from thirteen career clusters including Agriculture, Food & Natural Resources; Architecture & Construction; Arts, A/V Technology & Communication; Business Management & Administration; Health Science; Hospitality & Tourism; Human Services; Information Technology; Law, Public Safety & Security; Manufacturing; Marketing, Sales & Service; Science, Technology, Engineering & Math; Transportation, Distribution & Logistics. Students, parents, and faculty then collaborate through the Career Advisement Program (CAPS) to schedule classes that will best equip them for college or the world of work.

High academic standards continue to be maintained while more school-to-work options are available.
The Advanced Placement program has experienced growth in enrollment over the past 10 years. Students may select from nine subject areas in this program. In addition, several courses are articulated with the Dona Ana Community College and New Mexico State University, which means students earn advanced placement at college.

The counseling office will offer assistance and information concerning financial assistance, but the student and parent bear the responsibility of making application for scholarships and tuition stipends.

A request slip will then be sent to the teacher at the appointed time to call the student to the guidance office.

LCPS Secondary Handbook

Registration
Senior schedules will be issued August 4, 2008 beginning at 9:00am.
Junior schedules will be issued August 4, 2008 beginning at 1:30 pm.
Sophomore schedules will be issued August 5, 2008, beginning at 9:00am.
Freshmen schedules will be issued at the Freshmen orientation August 7 at 6:30pm.

Because of the new attendance policy, it is imperative that students begin classes the very first day of school.
Therefore, it is crucial that any schedule changes be completed the first three days of school.
Students who miss the first three days of school will be at risk of losing their requested classes
and will need to report to the guidance office to select new courses.

Bell Schedule

Zero Hour	7:15 - 8:45
First Hour	8:55 - 10:25
Second Hour	10:32 - 12:02
Lunch	12:02 - 12:52
Third Hour	12:52 - 2:28
Fourth Hour	2:35 - 4:05

Tardiness

Excessive tardiness is a discipline problem. Students have seven minutes to travel between classes. A student not present in the assigned classroom to the satisfaction of the teacher when the tardy bell rings can be locked out and sent to the detention room. A detention list of students who have been locked out will be published at the end of the day. Tardy students who do not report to detention can be suspended in-house or assigned lunch detention. Students will be sent to class after the bell has rung only in certain circumstances. The attendance clerk may accept notes from doctors or parents.

Late Arrival and Leaving Campus

To leave campus, a student must check out through the office. For illness and emergency, the student's parent or guardian will be telephoned and permission granted by the parent before the student will be allowed to leave. If the parent cannot be reached via telephone, the school nurse will be called to care for the student. No student may leave campus for a doctor's appointment without checking out through the office. A written request from the student's parent to the office is required. On returning from the appointment, the student must clear through the attendance office before going to class. It is recommended that all appointments be made before or after school. A permanent pass from the building must be obtained in the office by students who do not attend school all four periods. Any student who leaves campus in violation of this policy will be subject to disciplinary action.

Requirements for Enrollment

New students will provide the following:

Official withdrawal papers from former school with complete list of current classes and withdrawal grades.
Current immunization record.
A statement of proof of residence.

After all papers are in order, the new student will be assigned classes based on his withdrawal form. Substitutions will be made for any classes not offered at Mayfield High School when possible. Evaluation of credits for graduation will be made from a completed official transcript.

Requirements for Withdrawal

Students withdrawing from Mayfield High School must request a withdrawal form from the registrar. Students will be withdrawn for the following reasons:

Parent request in person or in writing with approval of administration
Non-attendance. A student may be withdrawn after nine (9) consecutive days of absence.

Students are withdrawn and a transcript will be sent after:

All fines and fees are paid
All books are returned or restitution made
All classes are cleared by teacher's signatures
Books are cleared in library by librarians' signatures

Delayed School Opening

The Superintendent will determine if school will convene on school days when severe inclement weather and/or dangerous driving conditions exist. The decision to either call off school or delay opening for two hours shall be made by 6:30 AM. This decision will be conveyed to the media for general distribution to the public.

Mayfield AFJROTC

Our unit has a history of excellence and innovation.

Founded just one year after the school was opened ,we began our line of heritage in 1966.

We produce quality leaders and outstanding citizens to enhance our great nation. We emphasize community service through fund raisers for Veteran's Organizations, blood drives, the Annual Veterans' Day Parade, and several other activities. We take pride in our traditions and customs. We have our annual Dining Out, Fall Awards Ceremony, and Military Ball in the Spring. We also hold our Summer Leadership School each year to familiarize incoming students with AFJROTC and select incoming student leadership for the upcoming school year. The Mayfield High School AFJROTC is a military based student run program. Our mission is to develop citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community. To accomplish this we do community service events such as character kids and many other various community involved events. We strive to build teamwork among our cadets. Over all the AFJROTC is a great program to be in, and to make lots of new friends.

Drill Team

Drill team is one of the programs in the MHS AFJROTC program. This is a very helpful and fun program. In this cadets will be able to improve their marching, and learn how to handle flags and rifles. The drill team has an Armed block that uses rifles, an un-armed that marches without rifles, and color guards that march with flags and rifles. Cadets will learn teamwork very quickly in this program.

Cadet Challenge

Cadet challenge is the athletic portion of the AFJROTC program. The cadet challenge team has practices to prepare them for competitions against other athletic teams. These practices usually consist of .5 to a 2 mile run, sit-ups, pull-ups (males), flexed arm hangs (females). These exercises help the cadets learn how to get in or stay in shape and in this program you will make lots of new friends.
