Mountainville academy is an amazing school. The teachers help you learn instead of just telling you instead of explaining it to you. We have a dress code but I think it helps so you're not looking for an outfit and become late to school. I joined in 3rd grade and I think that this is the best school I have ever been to. Everyone helps out and no one says rude things. We all follow the 7 habits so we can take care of other people and ourselves. Mountainville academy has helped me learn a lot quicker and I have an understanding of things I never knew. Also the teachers are never mad and prepare lessons that are clean and run smoothly. The elementary building and the middle school building are clean and sanitary. In middle school you can always find your classes. People are quiet and help when you are having a hard time.

Mountainville is the best school ever! I am in 9th grade and I have been here since Kindergarten. The teachers are the best! This school has some of the best teachers in all of Utah. I just love the environment. Everyone here is so nice and wants to help other people in school and out of school. I am on the Student Council and on the basketball team. I love to play sports and Mountainville gives you so many opportunities. We have volleyball, basketball, cross country, school plays, and many more extra curricular activities. We also have the best school lunches in the world! We have Subway sandwiches on Monday, Costa Vida quesadilla Tuesday, Little Caesars pizza Wednesday, and Chick-fil-A chicken nuggets Thursday! We have a half day on Friday instead of Monday which I like a ton. You should come to Mountainville because you will LOVE IT!!!

Mountainville is a great school and I absolutely love going here. I love the Leader In Me theme because I get to learn about organization and leadership skills. There are also no bullies here, unlike most public schools. It's a small middle school, which has pros and cons. The classes are smaller so you get more one-on-one time with the teachers. There are also less elective classes though. All of the teachers are really nice and care about our learning. My favorite part about this school is the theater program. Mrs. Stroupe (the theater teacher) is the nicest person you will ever meet. She helped me improve my acting and singing skills a lot. There is a relatively small budget for the shows, but it is awesome to see everything come together with a low budget. Overall this is a great school. I definitely recommend Mountainville Academy.

There are so many reasons why I love Mountainville. One reason why is because I love that the teachers are really nice and kind to everyone, this school also doesn't give as much homework as other schools. The bathrooms are also really clean and the students are really kind and the food is also really good. And you can fit in really well with this school. When I came here I was welcomed and made friends easily. This is why I think you should totally come to this school!

I have been at Mountainville academy since kindergarten and I am on the student council. Mountainville is a really good environment and does not have bad influences. The teachers are very good and they teach well. Mountainville has small classes so teachers can answer everyone's questions. I also like that 6th graders have 5 different classes every day when usually 6th is still middle school. I like that Mountainville is a seven habits school. There is nearly no bullying and it gets stopped if there is. Overall, Mountainville is a great school.

We choose Mountainville more than 10 years ago because of a commitment to academic excellence and innovation in education. We appreciate how Mountainville has been ahead of the trend toward STEM foundations. We love the inspiring teachers and the individual care and attention they have given to our children that has helped them explore and refine their passions. And from our beginning with the school, it is the community of involved parents and families that have made Mountainville exceptional.

My children have attended Mountainville for 6 years. We were glad to find such a great school close to home! The teachers truly care about the students and want them to succeed. They teach leadership skills and allow the students to try things for themselves. My oldest child, who has now moved on to a Junior High, is doing very well in her both her classes and citizenship due to the great teaching and skills she learned from Mountainville.

This school is the best school I have been to. They have a lot of leadership activities and the teachers are AWESOME!!!! Everyone is so kind and everybody respects each other. It is a great place to take your kids. They are also advancing in theater. They have so many fun electives and action teams for elementary. They have the BEST field day! For elementary, you get sprayed by a firetruck! The middle school has the best after school plays. They are doing The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe right now. If you do end up going, take theater! #Theater R0cks!!!

Excellent. Not only academically but also on a personal level. When there has been a problem they have tackled it quickly and effectively . I travel from a different town because our experience has been great.

We have loved Mountainville. I love that they have leveled math and reading grouping from Kindergarten. Your child can excell at the rate that is good for them. My first child was a little slow with reading in K but in first grade he really took off and was able to advance several levels very quickly, just what he needed!

We've had an incredible experience over the past 11 years! Close-knit, family like atmosphere. People address concerns in a straight forward way. You don't feel like you're a square peg being hammered into a round hole.

Mountainville is a great school. The Leader in Me program is incorporated throughout the school. Kindness and leadership attributes are emphasized, and students write and produce a fabulous "Leader in Me" program each year. Also, I am pleased with the academic challenge Mountainville provides my children. Mountainville believes in a more individualized approach to education. At our previous school, the pace of the math instruction provided little challenge for my kids. Everyone in the class moved at the same pace. However, at Mountainville, my kids are able to progress faster and definitely feel challenged. The first hour of the day, all elementary students break into math group (both my kids' math groups have about 10 students). I'm amazed at the progress both of my kids have made in math and also reading. Classes are about 24-28 students with an aide in each classroom for half of the day. I volunteer in my children's classes each week and I'm impressed with both of their teachers. Generally the kids seemed well behaved and my children have made good friends there.
