“Inspiring Each Student to Succeed Every Day”

The Mountain View School District, located in the heart of the San Gabriel Valley, is a K-8 school district comprised of ten elementary schools, one intermediate school, one middle school, an alternative education program for students in grades 5-8, and a Children’s Center and Head Start/ State Preschool program. The District, with an enrollment of 8,600 students, serves the educational needs of students living in the cities of El Monte and South El Monte.

To ensure student safety and an environment conducive to learning, a mandatory student uniform policy is enforced district wide.

Teamwork is the key at Mountain View where employees, parents, business and community members actively participate in the educational development of the students. In an environment of mutual respect, the team approach enhances the District’s efforts to prepare the students to become life long learners, as well as self-directed and motivated members of society."
