Who We Are

Mission

We inspire, prepare and empower every student.
Education isn’t one-size-fits-all, and each student has a  story. Through our whole-child approach, we meet students where they are academically, emotionally and socially. We provide the support, challenge and encouragement they need to discover their strengths as they grow so they can step into high school with confidence.

Vision

Every student, family, staff and community member is engaged and committed to learning in a collaborative, diverse and innovative partnership.
Through family partnerships and close relationships with some of Silicon Valley’s best organizations, we ensure every child’s needs are met. Together, we create safe, nurturing environments with innovative learning opportunities where students all feel engaged, supported and excited to learn.

Sustainability 

As a California Green Ribbon school district, we are leaders in sustainability. In addition to the environmental curriculum, students participate in green teams and help with composting and gardening. Our campus buildings are part of the lesson, conserving water and running on mostly renewable energy. 


Access

Through MVWSD Connect, every family has internet access at home. We also partner with community organizations that help us to ensure students' basic needs are met. Our afterschool and summer programming support working families, while providing kids with safe, enriching environments to learn, play and grow.
