Summary

Mountain View Elementary, located in Haymarket, VA, is a small school serving 418 students in grades PK-5 within Prince William County Public Schools.

Mountain View stands out for its exceptional attendance and strong resource base. Its chronic absenteeism rate was just 6.8% in 2024-25, less than half the district (13.8%) and state (14.8%) averages. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $12,592 per pupil—the highest among nearby Prince William County schools like Glenkirk Elementary ($11,875) and Haymarket Elementary ($9,614). Families will also appreciate the favorable student-teacher ratio of 16.3, which is lower than most neighboring schools, including Piney Branch Elementary (17.5) and George G. Tyler Elementary (18.5).

While Mountain View remains above state averages in most subjects—such as 3rd-grade reading (86.3% vs. 67.6% statewide)—its overall ranking has slipped from a peak of 79th in Virginia to 285th in 2025-26. This places it behind several very strong local peers, such as Glenkirk Elementary (27th), J.W. Alvey Elementary (51st), and Samuel L. Gravely Junior Elementary (106th). The dip appears tied to specific subject areas and changing cohorts. For example, 5th-grade science proficiency (73.3%) and 4th-grade Virginia Studies proficiency (78.5%) now trail top neighbors like Alvey (92.7% science) and Buckland Mills Elementary (93.5% Virginia Studies). Test scores have also shown significant swings from year to year, suggesting outcomes are heavily influenced by the specific group of students in each grade rather than a uniform schoolwide trend.
