Principal's Message

Welcome to Park View Elementary

 

Park View holds a very special place in my heart. I’ve had the privilege of watching it grow from the ground up into the amazing school it is today. What began as a vision has become a thriving community filled with dedicated teachers, supportive families, and incredible students.

 

At Park View, we strive every day to LEAD — Learn Together, Exceed Expectations, Accept Responsibility, and Demonstrate Respect. These words guide everything we do, from the way we learn together to the way we care for one another.

 

A little about me — I’m a proud mom of four and wife to a firefighter, so life is always full of energy, teamwork, and a little bit of organized chaos! I’ve been part of the MVSD family since 1998 and have been blessed to serve in just about every role imaginable — from teaching every grade level to supporting instruction as a Math and ELA TOSA, serving as a Student Support TOSA, Assistant Principal, and now Principal. I’ve had the privilege of working at every school in our district, and I truly believe in what MVSD stands for — putting children first and creating opportunities for every student to thrive.

 

I am so proud and deeply blessed to serve as the principal of this incredible school. The laughter in our hallways, the curiosity in our classrooms, and the boundless energy of our students make every day an adventure. Together, we make Park View a fun place to learn, grow, and LEAD.

 

Warmly,
Sophie Durbin
