GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Mira vista was my school growing up and my siblings and cousins school, so being in my neighborhood made it feel like a safe place to be. Now my kids attend that school and it is a good school with amazing teachers. The one thing I didn't like was the addition of middle school classes to the elementary school.

I am an ex-student who left this school in favor of a newer dedicated middle school instead of Mira Vista we got a new principal after our old one got promoted and rightfully so, I would not recommend this school as it really fell off after our old principal left.

Wonderful neighborhood school. Dedicated teaching staff and down to earth, diverse and unpretentious families. Campus has sweeping views with lots of outdoor space and several school gardens. Class sizes are pretty good for public school and the overall atmosphere on campus is safe and welcoming.

What a diverse, smart, and dedicated community of educators and families! Our precocious, high-achiever girl has been seen, challenged, and encouraged here since we moved to the neighborhood at the start of 1st grade. She's made great friends and feels at home here. We are thrilled to be MV Bees!
