Kent Mountain View Academy
Kent Mountain View Academy was established in the fall of 1997 for the purpose of providing home school families with options to support their decision to home school their children.

In this environment, the students remain closely connected to their parents. Parents are encouraged to volunteer a minimum of 10-12 hours per month.
