A MESSAGE FROM:
Mount View Core Knowledge Charter School
2024-2025
The mission of Mountain View Core Knowledge School is to stimulate wonder and curiosity, to engage the mind, and to promote vision and understanding of the world to all students. Goals include giving students the opportunity to maximize potential by exposure to a common foundation of an organized body of knowledge sequentially presented by grade level. Character values including integrity, respect, responsibility and compassion will be strongly encouraged. The school achieves these goals through…
emphasis on a structured educational philosophy, strong encouragement of parental involvement, and commitment to treating each child as a unique individual in a safe environment. The development of the charter for Mountain View Core Knowledge School (MVCKS) began in the summer of 1995 by an enthusiastic group of founding parents, their appointed Governing Board, and local citizens with valuable input from members of the Fremont RE-1 Administration and Board of Education. Our goal was to establish a charter school to complement the public school programs already in place in this county. The academic programs chosen were the Core Knowledge Sequence Curriculum and Saxon Mathematics, both proven to provide outstanding academic instruction to elementary and middle school students as measured by standardized testing and lifetime achievement. The school opened in the fall of 1996 in rented premises and later built a permanent home without the help of any taxpayer dollars. The Core Knowledge Sequence Curriculum offers an annual progression of detailed, sequential curriculum with specified content in language arts, mathematics, science, history, geography, fine arts, and world cultures. Critical thinking skills and use of technology are taught. The comprehensive K-8 curriculum inspires all students to achieve academic success by offering a clearly marked path for consistent study, providing the foundation for adult success. The success of MVCKS is firmly based on the outstanding commitment of the Governing Board, Administrators, staff, and parent volunteers. The volunteers have been crucial in establishing and maintaining MVCKS and have given countless thousands of hours of their time and efforts to our school. Volunteers continue to advance and broaden excellence in educational opportunities at MVCKS. We are proud to provide an alternative educational experience in Fremont County, with a success record that has earned us national recognition. As we grow and evolve, we are committed to sustaining the foundational components that the school was founded on 28 years ago while striving to continuously improve, stay relevant, and provide state of the art educational experiences to our students.
