I love mill valley, it is a school of excellence. Mill valley is a school that expects a lot of its students, which I have loved because it has pushed me to become better. The only thing I'd like to see changed is to add a Geology program!

The environment is overall really positive, spirit days organized by student council makes going to school more enjoyable. Having good sports teams helps to motivate school spirit.

I used to go here freshmen year, and due to personal life reasons, I no longer attended at MV until 2nd quarter Junior year. The staff accepted me and always made sure I have access to mental health resources, and the ability to start my college and career planning early.

With current student population around 1,400 it is larger than it was a few years ago but the projections show slow...

The school has many excellent offerings whether it be extracurricular or academic. The parents are involved and it has a good community feel. There is a rampant drug/alcohol problem that is semingly dismissed or ignored by either parents or staff. Unfortunately to the detriment of the students and s...
