The Best District! Worth Every Drive Back!"…read more We moved away, but we still find ourselves driving back to this district because it's simply the best! The schools are outstanding, with dedicated teachers who go above and beyond. The community is welcoming, and you can feel the warmth and support everywhere, from local events to everyday interactions. The facilities are top-notch, and the resources provided to students and families make a huge difference. We couldn't ask for a better place, and no other district comes close to the quality and experience here. Highly recommend!

I would give Mounds View High School about 4 stars overall. The academic side is solid -- there are…read moredecent classes, a wide range of electives, and many teachers genuinely care and put effort into helping students succeed. You can tell that a lot of staff members are there because they want to make a difference. However, my senior year was overshadowed by a serious incident involving a staff member, which was shocking and difficult for the student body to process. Experiencing that situation firsthand made the school feel less stable and less safe than it should have, and it changed the way many of us viewed the administration and the environment. So while Mounds View has strong academics and great teachers in many areas, that experience really complicated my overall impression of the school.

When parents objected to a school memo in 2010 prohibiting celebrations, a taskforce was formed which determined that among 185 families (students, parents and teachers) only 3 parents would not allow their kids to attend Halloween, winter, and Valentine's parties. The task force data was completely disregarded by district administrators, and no parties are currently allowed. "The point of creating a taskforce was to give students and parents a voice, and we feel that our voice wasn't taken into consideration at all," said one parent who served on the taskforce. Yes, I understand the need for equity. But have we gone overboard at the expense of our children's enjoyment of school?

My son recently attended MPA for a week long summer camp program called Camp Invention. The campus…read moreis very easy to get around, grounds are well kept, and there's plenty of parking. I recently found out this is the old Hill High school grounds but the buildings have definitely been modernized. The camp was awesome with the exception that there was a water leak on campus and camp closed early on one of the days (at 11am). Otherwise the camp counselors were all very engaging, and friendly including Rudy Ford who heads up the entire program. My kiddo absolutely adored the curriculum and projects they were worked on. He was so sad when camp was over on Friday afternoon so we'll definitely look into it again next year.

Memory recall was an extreme challenge for him and his ability to reason and think things through were difficult tasks. Olivia, his trainer, is simply amazing! She was able to build a wonderful rapport with my son which is not easy given his challenges due to Autism.

He wants to work with her and her patience and calm demeanor is exactly what he needed to greatly improve his cognitive skills and ignite his love of learning!
