Filling out the free or reduced lunch application helps more than just your family—it supports your child's school, too!

Even though meals are currently free for all students, submitting the form at ezmealapp.com ensures continued family access to benefits like food assistance, medical, housing and utility support, afterschool care, and more! One application per household is all it takes.

Complete your application before the end of September to make sure your child is eligible for benefits this year!

Just like students, adults learn best when they’re moving, sharing, and collaborating! Our teachers did just that as they dug into curriculum, grade-level expectations, and strategies for a successful year ahead.

At the heart of this work is The MVWSD Way—our shared commitment to high-leverage practices that drive student engagement, deepen learning, and help every student succeed.

Throughout the year, our teachers will continue working together on MVWSD Way initiatives to strengthen instruction and ensure every student receives rigorous, high-quality first instruction.

We’re excited to put this learning into action for our students! 📚✨

Dear Crittenden Neighbors,

As part of Mountain View Whisman School District's ongoing efforts to modernize our transportation fleet, we are preparing our bus yard at Crittenden Middle School to accommodate two new electric school buses. To help us evaluate the impact, ** beginning August 12, the parking lot gate near the auditorium, between Rock Street and Middlefield Road, will be closed.**

There will be no through traffic on campus between Rock and Middlefield using this gate. If you are traveling to the front of the school, please access campus via Rock Street. If you are heading to the back entrance near the Whisman Sports Center, please use Middlefield Road.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as this may require a small adjustment to your usual route. Thank you for your partnership and support.

There’s no better way to get to know MVWSD than by seeing it firsthand! 🚌💙

Our newest teachers hopped aboard the bus with the Superintendent for a fun tour of all our schools. Along the way, they learned about each campus, the unique communities they’ll be serving, and the shared commitment that connects us across the district.

We can't wait to see the impact they'll make in our classrooms this year. 🍎✨
