Mountain View High School College Career & Life Skills Center, an 8,400-square-foot building to accommodate the school’s special needs program, is open.
Designed to support students with profound disabilities, it features a co-teaching classroom; teacher work area; drop-in resource center for parents and students preparing for college or to enter the work force; and offices for one-on-one meetings, Individual Education Program reviews, testing, counseling and other critical functions. A portion of the building was developed to mimic a studio apartment with a kitchen, laundry and other living spaces to assist in teaching life skills.
