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 accredited by the Utah State Office of Education.[3][4]

Athletics

The school sponsors fourteen sports and 23 varsity teams, including baseball, basketball, cheer, cross-country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, volleyball, and wrestling.[5][6] MVHS has won 89 UHSAA state athletic championships[7] and seven national championships. As of November 2021, MVHS has more state championships than any other Utah high school in the sports of girls basketball, boys cross country, and girls cross country.[8]

The Utah Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (UIAAA) awarded MVHS the 5A classification Director's Cup for the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years. The Director's Cup is awarded for athletic success (40%), academic achievement (40%), and student, school, and community sportsmanship (20%). [9]

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.[10] Also in 2021, a football game spurred an investigation from the United States Department of Education Office for Civil Rights when fans allegedly used racial slurs and threw drinks at opposing players.[11][12]
