Next Generation Science Standards
Many states have adopted new standards based on the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) because they understand that a robust science education in school will pave the way for increased opportunities in college and future careers. The NGSS enable teachers to offer all students interactive instruction that promotes analysis and interpretation of data, critical thinking, problem solving, and connections across science disciplines - with a high set of expectations for achievement in all grade levels.
Click on the grade span below to learn more about how to prepare your student for a lifetime of success and understand the new science standards.

Community Resources for Parents
Mountain View School District is proud to be a partner with several community agencies that are designed to help others. Below are links to community agencies that are available to families.
Bullying Prevention
Bullying is a form of violence. It can be physical, verbal, psychological, or sexual. Here are some examples of bullying:
- Physical: hitting, kicking, spitting, pushing
- Verbal: teasing, threatening, name-calling
- Psychological: excluding someone, spreading rumors, intimidating
- Sexual: touching, assault, exhibitionism, and many of the actions listed above
Bullying may also occur through the Internet or other forms of technology. This is known as cyberbullying. It is sending or posting hurtful material.
Bullying is common, but it should not be viewed as a normal part of growing up. It is more damaging to children than previously thought. Bullying has a negative effect on a student’s ability to learn.
Schools are responsible for creating safe environments for all students. They must work to prevent bullying, and they must respond to it when it happens.
The California Department of Education offers information and resources for parents, administrators, and students about bullying.
Child Care with YMCA
The YMCA offers child care to parents of Mountain View School District. The program is held at various locations. To learn more about locations and how to sign up, please see the West End YMCA site.
