Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done;
and Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order;
if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

Five unexcused dismissals equals one unexcused absence.
TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK – MAY 6-10, 2024. Parents and grandparents are encouraged to express their thanks and heart-felt gratitude to our wonderful teachers. We have a faculty that works hard and are very dedicated to the ministry of Mountain View Christian School.
Please pray for the teachers and staff. They go far beyond the call of duty as instructors, mentors, and advisors. While most Americans spend their lives building careers, our teachers spend their careers building lives that will please and be most beneficial to the Lord. We are very thankful for the faculty that God has blessed us with this year.
