GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Mount View High School is a place where you can meet friends you'll know for the rest of your life. I like for most part that there really was not any bullying and most of the teachers were fun and you could easily ask them for help. There are quite of few things I would like to change though. I would like there to be more opportunities for the students there. As well as more sports and better discipline action for students who disobey the rules. There also are not as many teachers as before so you will get the same teacher at least three times a day or for the next two years. I would also like for there to be more diverse classes such as a class that can help you prepare and understand college better.

I love Mount View High School because it is always filled with excitement and joy. Their academics are excellent, the food is average but still good especially when there's a holiday coming up, colleges are always coming up to the school interviewing the students, sports, and clubs are really great. I have HSTA and Upward bound so when I sign up for college I can put those on my college resumé. All together Mount View is a great school and it's never a full moment.

At mount view high school there has been a noticeable decrease in what they call "college and career readiness". If I was someone who perhaps graduated a few years ago, my answers would be noticeably different. The way the school is ran is far from acceptable. Being prepared for college is not something they focus on.
