4-7 grade teachers are outstanding and effectively teach and support emotional growth and wellbeing. Grade 8 teachers cannot teach and many kids' growth was stagnant or declined. Some teachers there need to remember MMS is a public school and not a private religious institution.

Reports on Mountain are not available on the Dept of Ed website. Using info available on Mountain’s website and comparing it to Dept of Ed info on othe...
