Summary

Mountain View High School is a large public high school in Lawrenceville, GA, serving 2,221 students in grades 9-12 within the Gwinnett County School District, where just over half of the student body qualifies for free or reduced lunch.

One of the most striking things about Mountain View is how well it supports students who often face the biggest hurdles. The school ranks in the top 17% statewide for its Special Education students and the top 20% for English Language Learners—a real point of pride. It also does exceptionally well with Multi-racial students, ranking in the top 17% statewide. This strength carries through to graduation: the school’s 91.6% graduation rate outpaces both the district (85.4%) and state (87.2%) averages, and its dropout rate of 0.8% is far lower than the district’s 2.8%. In fact, Mountain View has beaten the district and state graduation averages for five straight years. Biology is another standout, with a 57.6% proficiency rate that tops both the district (50.7%) and state (47.2%).

However, the picture is more mixed in other areas. Chronic absenteeism is a significant concern at 23.2%, well above the district (15.0%) and state (17.7%) averages. Algebra I proficiency (48.2%) trails the district average (57.6%), and U.S. History proficiency (32.1%) is below both district and state levels. Compared to nearby schools, Mountain View is outperformed on test scores by Seckinger High School and Mill Creek High School, but its graduation rate is competitive with those higher-ranked peers and better than Collins Hill High School (89.5%) and Dacula High School (89.2%). In short, Mountain View’s story is one of persistence: while its state ranking has slipped over the past decade, it has become more effective at getting students across the finish line—especially those who need the most support.

Very good school so far. Hope it stays this way or becomes an even better place for my kid and all other students. Close Quote

Very good school. I noticed that most of the negative comments posted on different sites about Mountain View are posted by trouble makers, people who have a specific grudge about a certain situation, or students who dropped out. Those reviews are not relevant to the quality of education, safety, or overall school quality. Close Quote

A am a class of 2015 student at mountain view, and to anyone who is looking to go here, let me inform you of a couple things. The school literally looks like a jail. (all white walls, NO decoration). I have been offered drugs multiple times, and I can name at least 10 people off of the top of my head who have dealt illegal drugs on campus. Instead of preventing this, the teachers were most likely busy handing out detentions for dress code. Don't get me wrong, there needs to be a dress code to some extent. However, when the school turns the AC off at 1:00 for budget cuts, I found myself sweating while simply taking notes in class. No shorts below the knees, all shirts must cover your armpits, and you cant wear the numbers 88 or 86. If you violate any of these, you have an automatic detention. Anyways, in my opinion, all classes are basic, all rules are unconventional, and all the students are completely bored at the school. (did I mention how bad the sports teams are?) Close Quote
