During her time at MVES, Jennifer joined some lucky kindergarteners for a lesson and had the opportunity to participate alongside our students. The Music Roots program provided wonderful entertainment during lunch, and Jennifer ended her visit with a special read-aloud in our library.
Save the Children proudly offers several programs at MVES, including in-school and afterschool literacy programs, KinderBoost, as well as an early childhood home-visiting program. We are so grateful for their continued partnership and the opportunities they provide to our students and families!π






Mrs. Adamsβ class celebrated Johnny Appleseed on Friday with a day full of learning, tasting, and fun!
Students made homemade applesauce, tried apple pie, and taste-tested three different varieties of apples. They even graphed the results to find the class favorite! ππ They put their apple cores to good use by turning them into stamps for their very own apple artwork. π¨
The class also enjoyed learning about John Chapman, and to make the day even sweeter, one thoughtful student brought βHappy Apple Dayβ cards for everyone! β€οΈ
What a fun way to mix reading, math, science, art, and a little something sweet! πππ

Weβre excited to bring together parents, alumni, local businesses, and community members who share one thing in common β a love for our Yellowjackets! π
Friends of the Jackets is being created as a community-led, independently organized group with the goal of supporting and celebrating the students, staff, programs, and activities of Mountain View Schools.
Our hope is for Friends of the Jackets to find meaningful ways to make a difference across our campuses β from supporting students and staff, strengthening programs and activities, partnering with local businesses, and helping with facility and campus improvements that benefit our Yellowjackets for years to come.
Friends of the Jackets is designed to give our community a voice in how we support our schools.

We want this to truly be a community effort β created by our community, for our students and school.

A huge Yellowjacket thank you to First Service Bank, Urban Forge, Flatwoods Baptist Church and Stone Bank for providing delicious snacks and drinks for our staff across campus.

We are so grateful for community partners who continually support Mountain View Schools and our teachers!
