Welcome incoming 6th graders and returning students!
Class teams scheduled to be posted outside of Mountview Middle School August

I hope that you are as excited as I am about the upcoming school year. You 
can anticipate rewarding new and continued relationships, new experiences, 
fun and we'll even try to sprinkle in a bit of learning as we go along! 
Middle school is a grand adventure and I am honored to be a part of your 
Mountview journey. Fasten your seat belts!
