![]() Mountain View Christian Academy continues to monitor the events that surround the spread of COVID-19 or Coronavirus worldwide, in the U.S. and in Virginia. We have established guidelines based on the current evidence presented and the recommendations set forth by the VDH (Virginia Department of Health) and the CDC (Centers for Disease Control).

You can access resources for you to review, and current announcements right here on this page. Here is what the general population can do to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, as well as other contagious diseases.

Please keep your child home if he or she is manifesting any of the following symptoms:
