Hands-On Learning in Mrs. Bivanco's 2nd Grade Class! In Mrs. Bivanco's class, students recently dove into a fun, creative project that blended history and STEM! Inspired by the War of 1812, they set sail into a boat-building adventure. Using their imagination and problem-solving skills, the class designed and built their own boats—plus, they added a bear twist! This hands-on experience not only brought history to life but also sparked creativity and teamwork. What an amazing way to combine learning with fun! #MountainViewPreparatory #HomeoftheOcelots #Bivanco2ndGradeClass #STEMEducation #HandsOnLearning #2ndGrade #History #WarOf1812

Ms. Young's PE Safety Tip: Crocs? Not So Much! Our amazing PE teacher and Athletic Director, Ms. Young, has a strong opinion about Crocs in PE class. While they might be comfy, they aren’t the best choice for physical activities. They can be slippery, offer little support, and might lead to injuries. We want every student to be safe and ready to move, so please, make sure your child wears proper athletic shoes to PE! Check out this fun video of Ms. Young sharing her thoughts on the importance of safe footwear during PE. It's a must-see! 😆. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jOtO1_L-yi3trQNmCuWZoIFAmC5Iq_7n/view?usp=drive_link Let’s keep our students active, safe, and ready to crush it in PE! 💥 #MountainViewPreparatory #HomeoftheOcelots #PEwithMsYoung #SafetyFirst #CrocsNotAllowed #ActiveAndSafe #PEFun

Monthly Learner Profile Focus: Risk-Taker This month, our school community came together for a special assembly to celebrate the qualities of a Risk-Taker. Embracing challenges and stepping out of comfort zones is a powerful way to grow, learn, and thrive. As Risk-Takers, we encourage our students to approach new experiences with courage, try new things even when the outcome is uncertain, and learn from both success and failure. #MountainViewPreparatory #HomeoftheOcelots #RiskTaker #LearnerProfile #EmbraceChallenges #StepOutOfComfortZone #LearnThroughRisk #Resilience #PushYourLimits #ChallengeYourself
