My brother and I both graduated from Mt. View. If you want your kids to be in the popular crowd in high school, this is probably not the place for you. It does have a lot of cliques, emphasis on sports, etc. However, if you want your kids to be prepared for college, this is the best place to be. It's

I attended Mountain View. It is a great school with many opportunities, both academic and extra-curricular. I was not from a particular religion nor did I have personal sports training but I still played varsity basketball and got along well with the all the students and teachers. Mountain View as

If you want to believe you can only succeed at this school if you are a certain religion that's fine but I think you are sadly mistaken. I have since moved out of Arizona but I do wish my children were able to attend a school like MVT. The teachers and staff were genuine and caring. The school offered many opportunities. I would definitely recommend it to anyone! Read less

Mountain View has a very talented fine arts program ranging from band to theater to choir and much more! I have had the pleasure of meeting almost all of the instructors who teach in this category and they are all strongly educated in their field and care deeply for what they do, but it seems the higher

I have seen the principal attend every football game, basket ball, ect.. but I can't seem to recall him at a competition for band, orchestra, and what not. Music is an important experience for children because of the positive influence it has on them. It is widely known that music helps expand the mind and those individuals who are involved in these activities are the ones who score the highest the SAT's. Help keep music alive! Read less

Mountain View is overall a good school.....if you are of a certain 'clique' and social class. If you are not of particular religion, you do not fit in with the crowd. And if you have never had personal sports training/coaching, you will not play on varsity sports no matter how talented you are. The

In particular, I suggest that you watch the east entrance (on Lindsay) to the main parking lot. 2. Institutional culture, socialization.

If you are not so affiliated, I encourage you to personally explore this aspect of the school before sending your child into an environment in which they will likely be seen as an outsider. Read less

I unenrolled from Mountain View because of the entire attitude of the school. For the few months I went there, I honestly felt like I had learned nothing, and my education was getting no where.
