Elementary School (Grades K-5)

Building a Love for Learning in a Christ-Centered Community

At Mountain View Christian School, our Elementary program lays the foundation for academic success, spiritual growth, and character development. With engaging lessons, hands-on learning, and a nurturing environment, we inspire young minds to explore, create, and grow in their faith.

What Sets Our Elementary Program Apart?

Faith-Integrated Learning

Every subject is taught from a biblical perspective, helping students understand God’s role in their lives.

Strong Academic Foundation

Core subjects are reinforced with hands-on activities that make learning exciting and memorable.

Small Class Sizes & Individual Attention

Teachers encourage curiosity and confidence while meeting each child’s unique learning needs.

Safe & Supportive Environment

We foster kindness, respect, and strong friendships in a Christ-centered atmosphere.

At MVCS, we believe elementary school should be a time of joyful discovery, character-building, and academic preparation—all in a place where students feel loved and valued.
