I go to this school. It's a very competitive school with a good atmosphere for learning. Fights break out close to never. I have never witnessed a fight in Monta Vista in my life!
I am a parent who does not see anything that might give my child in this school except numbers ( grades ), stress and anxiety. The AP classes that she wanted to take were not available. The classes are taught by the teachers lacking inspiration. Grades are good, but the school is not inviting and welcoming. Oh, and the ethnic groups tend to create cliques and known to cause additional unwelcoming feeling For just a student who wants to enjoy her high school years, study, and explore future possibilities this school is not a best choice because classes are there but educational advisors support is not. If we had another choice we probably would reconsider to attend another school but we live very close to MV and this convenience is too good to change anything I am a parent with a daughter in 11th grade.

This is the High school my sons go to and the Counselors are great,so is the staffand the classes are excellant.My oldest son is getting great grades,as far as my 11th grader ,he just needs to learn organizational skills and become more motivated. It really is a great school,they have a learning skills class that I reccomend,amongst others(like Slvan classes you don't have to pay for,hope this helps its in Cupertino,California.bfn Cheryl

Although MV has a reputation for it's accelerated education, I truly can say that it's classes are like any other schools. Some teachers are great, but others are not. Often resulting in students having to study on their own, in order to get a sufficient amount of knowledge. The students at this school believe that they are superior to others from different schools. This of course only adds unnecessary stress to their fellow classmates who are there just to get the most out of high school, not to brag and boast about a victory against another school in a competition of any kind. The lack of people who aren't quite as intelligent deprives MV students from the experience of having to help someone else out. It also is he reason for the higher acedemic marks. Therefore, this school isn't any more incredible than many other high schools in the area.
