My daughter attends Mountain Vista and I could not be more pleased with her progress! When she entered this school, she was a year and a half behind her grade level. In just one school year, she was online to graduate! It was the encouragement from the teachers who believed in her that led her to believe in herself! Those teachers are wonderful people who really care about their students' futures!
