View Elementary.
We are excited to welcome Ms. Zou to the Mt. View family. Her dedication, passion for education, and innovative approach will be invaluable as we continue to inspire, challenge, and empower our students. Please join me in welcoming and supporting her as she transitions into her new role!
We wish Principal Woods all the best in his new role as an administrator with Southside School District and are grateful for all that he has contributed to Mt. View Elementary during his time with us. His leadership, dedication to literacy, and passion for our students and community have made a memorable impact.
