curriculum
It is our goal to help all children develop an understanding and love for their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ while learning the skills they need to succeed both now and in the future. Mountain View Lutheran School has adopted elements of Core Knowledge, Common Core State Standards, Nevada State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards as the foundations for the written curriculum in Preschool through Grade 5.
KINDERGARTEN
Kindergarten at Mountain View Lutheran School is a reading and writing program with emphasis on phonics, reading readiness, developmental thinking, mathematical relationships, religion, and beginning science and social studies concepts.
Children also continue to develop skills in relationship-building and maintaining a positive attitude towards learning in a more structured school setting, which includes the developing of personal responsibility. This developmental process requires parent and teacher dedication and consistent communication.
ACCREDITATION
Mountain View Lutheran as a whole has obtained several voluntary improvement opportunities via the accreditation processes. With accreditations through the Western Association of Schools and Colleges and National Lutheran Schools Accreditation, Mountain View Lutheran will be the first and only school in Nevada accredited through Western Association of Schools and Colleges, leading the way for schools throughout Nevada and the Pacific Southwest District of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod to do the same through the rigorous process of accreditation.
