FAMILY

Perhaps our biggest contribution comes in the form of family Family is important to each and every

Mountview member, in fact, we consider our school community to be a “family” as well … our home-away-from-home We have staff members with many brothers and sisters, a twin, and many dedicated moms (and friends, sisters, etc.) who show up every year to help us set up our classrooms Our parents, too, attend our events and cheer us on And as parents ourselves, which many of us are, we know the value of

providing a great education and the importance of trust That being said, 26 of us are PROUD parents

ourselves, to nearly 60 children – with a pretty even split between girls and boys (with the girls slightly outnumbering the boys!) Likewise, we have one proud grandma among our mix, who proudly shares stories about her one granddaughter

We hope you agree … your children are in qualified and

loving hands
