MVMS is a great school. The principal is always involved in the activities and provides a leadership presence. And the teachers go above and beyond in making the student experience positive. The teachers truly care about being good role models, being there for the students and having fun. There is such a feeling of strong team dynamics and comraderie in all aspects of what is provided by the teaching staff for the students who attend this school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Pennsylvania used the Pennsylvania System of State Assessments (PSSA) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in math and reading, in grades 5, 8 and 11 in writing, and in grades 4, 8 and 11 in science. The results for reading, writing, science and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The PSSA is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Pennsylvania. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
