A Note from Principal Whatley

There is something special about the start of a new school year—the fresh energy, new possibilities, and the reminder that we get to do this work together. The 2026–27 school year is officially here, and I could not be more excited to welcome our Timberwolf family back to Mountain View! Whether you are returning or joining us for the first time, I hope you know how important you are to our school community. Our work matters, and the relationships we build with our students and with one another are at the heart of what makes Mountain View special.

As we begin this new year, let’s continue to lead with our Mountain View values: Family, Love, and Respect. There will be challenges, celebrations, unexpected moments, and plenty of opportunities to make a difference. My hope is that we start this year with purpose, positivity, and a commitment to showing up for our students and for each other. Welcome back, Timberwolves! Let’s make this another great year at Mountain View.
