Mountain View High School (MVHS) is located in Orem, Utah, United States. It is part of Utah County's Alpine School District. The school first opened its doors to the graduating class of 1980–81. Every year students from Orem Junior High and Lakeridge Junior High enter MVHS.
Like other schools in Utah, it has been inspected by the Utah State Office of Education.[3][4]
Sports
The school has teams in several sports, including baseball, basketball, cross-country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, volleyball, swimming, tennis, track and field, and wrestling.[5][6]
In 2021, there was an allegation by a volleyball player from another Utah High school about intimidation and harassment by a Mountain View High School coach.[7]
A football game in 2021 spurred an investigation from the the United States Department of Education Office for Civil Rights when fans used racial slurs and threw drinks at opposing players.[8][9]
