Guide Me Home to North Jersey

Mountain View School in Mendham Borough has been selected as a “New Jersey Middle School to Watch” in the state’s selection of just THREE schools statewide. This program is used ‘to highlight middle schools that make an extra effort to support sustained learning.’ The school’s programs will now be shared with schools in New Jersey as well as on a national scale to promote inventive approaches to grade school, middle school, and classroom education that focus on creative models that help all students achieve better results.

The schools were judged on three sets of criteria:

Social equality - do the programs provide every student with high caliber teachers and resources and offer fair opportunities for all?; academic excellence – do the school programs challenge all students?; developmental responsiveness - are the programs perceptive to the unique needs and developmental challenges of early adolescence?

Mountain View was recognized for high achievement in all three of these areas! Visit the official Schools to Watch website to learn more! As the mom of two Mountain View students, I couldn’t be more proud!
