Mountain View Primary and Infant School stands as a beacon of educational excellence in the heart of Kingston, Jamaica, proudly serving the communities of Eastern Kingston and St. Andrew since 1967. Nestled at the foot of the majestic Long Mountain on Mountain View Avenue, our school has been empowering young minds and shaping bright futures for over five decades.
Originally established as an extension of the renowned Excelsior High School, Mountain View has evolved into a comprehensive educational institution that serves students primarily from Hampstead Park, Top Range, Nannyville Gardens, and Swallowfield. We take pride in our inclusive approach, welcoming families from diverse socio-economic backgrounds and providing quality education that opens doors to limitless possibilities.
Our school is distinguished by exceptional achievements in both academics and extracurricular activities. We've earned national recognition for our outstanding cheerleading program, including top-ten placements at the World Championships in Florida, USA. With a modern Digicel STEM Centre, comprehensive sports programs, and numerous clubs ranging from Red Cross to Environmental Club, we offer holistic development opportunities that nurture every aspect of our students' growth.
Under the dedicated leadership of Principal Michelle Robinson and Vice Principal Lisa Bailey, Mountain View Primary and Infant School continues to build on its legacy of excellence. Our recent 'Satisfactory' rating from the National Education Inspectorate (April 2020) reflects our commitment to continuous improvement and educational innovation, ensuring every child reaches their full potential.
