Officer Roger's First Safety Lesson with Kinder!
Today was an exciting day for our Kindergarteners as they had their very first safety lesson with Officer Roger!
With his bright badge and friendly smile, Officer Roger taught the children all about crosswalk safety, car safety, and how to stay safe when walking near roads. The kids learned:
1. How to Stop, Look, and Listen before crossing the street
2. What crosswalk signs and signals mean
3. Why seatbelts are super important in the car
4. How to spot a safe place to cross with an adult
We’re so grateful to Officer Roger for helping our little learners become Safety Stars!

Mrs Ozuna 's third grade classroom had a blast reading "What Took You So Long?" by Mélanie Watts! After enjoying the story, they each drew their own version of the bunny and painted it with watercolors.
Every bunny turned out full of color and personality, just like the students themselves!

First Week of Art Class Magic!
Ms. Estrella kicked off her very first week at MVP with a splash of creativity! Not only did our students dive into some hands-on fun, but a brand-new artistic crew was born — the Post-It Club!
These imaginative boys turned a regular table into a full-blown Post-It masterpiece during class. We’re talking patterns and BIG creative energy!
Way to go, artists! We can’t wait to see what the Post-It Club dreams up next!

Friendship & Kindness in Action!
Mrs. Bivanco's 2nd graders are off to a great start this year!
They created friendship bracelets to celebrate connection and community, and worked together to build a Classroom Contract — a list of promises about how we treat each other with respect, kindness, and responsibility.
These young learners are already showing what it means to be great classmates and great friends. #MountainViewPreparatory #HomeoftheOcelots #SecondGradeStrong #FriendshipFirst #MrsBivancosClass #ClassroomCommunity

Back to School Safety Reminder!
Mountain View SRO Roger Scarim is out in the community reminding everyone: school is back in session, and that means more kids near crosswalks, sidewalks, and school zones.
Children can run out unexpectedly — chasing a ball, waving to a friend, or just excited for the day. Please slow down, stay alert, and be extra cautious, especially near schools and neighborhoods.
Let’s work together to keep our kids safe this school year!

Parent Appreciation Post
We’ve received such a heartfelt message from one of our MVP parents that we just had to share.
"As we wrap up the school year, I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to the amazing teachers and staff at MVP! Your dedication, patience, and love have made such a lasting impact on our family. We feel incredibly blessed to be part of this school community. A special shout-out to Mrs. Tuell, Mrs. Ozuna, Mrs. Reay, and Mrs. Bivanco—thank you for pouring so much into our son and daughter this year. You've given them a strong foundation and, more importantly, a love for learning that will stay with them for years to come. "
We couldn’t agree more! A big thank you to these incredible teachers and all of our staff who make MVP such a special place. Your hard work and dedication don’t go unnoticed! 🌟

APEX MVP PTA Fundraiser Success!
We’re thrilled to share some awesome news—thanks to the incredible support from our MVP families and the success of our APEX fundraiser, every window at our school has now been professionally tinted!
This exciting upgrade was made possible through the expert work of Tautimer Tinting, and we’re especially proud to highlight that one of our very own MVP parents, Victor—owner of Tautimer Tinting—personally helped finish the job in our kindergarten classrooms!
These new window tints don’t just look great—they also enhance the safety and security of our campus and help keep our classrooms cooler and more comfortable during those sunny summer days.
A huge THANK YOU to every family who participated, donated, and cheered us on—you made this happen. We’re so grateful for this amazing community!
