Mountain View Elementary School

Great school. Good discipline. Great staff. The only complaint I have is the PTA always schedules times to meet during "normal" business hours, which is fine if you don't have to work, but for those of us that do, we cannot attend.

Wonderful school! Academic standards are high, teachers are nurturing and caring, and the leadership is by example. The principal and the assistant principal of Mt. View are present almost every minute the doors of the school are open, and both have a passion for their life's work. They take great pride in the students, the teachers and staff, and even the facility itself. The faculty is second to none - very dedicated, involved with the children, and determined to help all students. My son, a fifth grader, has always attended Mt. View School, and although two other systems and several other schools are in close proximity, I would not consider sending him elsewhere.

My Child is in Kindergarten this year, and my other son will be starting in August. As i parent wo just moved to the area and had my son start school, I have to say that his teacher Mrs. Currence has made this school year wonderful. I do worry that there is not a school nurse, and the school seems to do alot of things that are costly. However, the staff and teachers that I have met are very good with the students. my son loves school and his brother hopes to have Mrs. currence next year.

I taught at Mt. View for 29 years. I miss my colleagues. I can attest for their genuine concern for each and every student. The concern is not primarily what the children's test scores are, even though that is important to them. The primary concern is for the children's interests, abilities, achievements in all areas of their lives, etc.... My children also attended Mt. View. They went on to be very successful at Central and at the University of Tennessee. They are now married and successful in their adult lives. They received a great foundation at Mt. View.

My child has attended this school for 6 years now and the teachers have been great. They have been very professional and genuinely caring for the students. The areas that I feel need improvement are probably more state controlled than individually. My major concern is that they only have a nurse for half a day once a week. Instead of creating administrative jobs I feel our children need more in the schools.

My child was a student at this school for four years during this time I observed alot of things that should not be happening. Their is too much politics in this school. I do have to say their are some good teachers, but the principle and secrataries at this school only care about there sports, and what makes them look the best.

Very good school, though I am not fond of the vice principal. Wonderful teachers who communicate very well with the parents.
