Over the weekend of September 13-15, Clarkston High School in Clarkston, Washington experienced a security concern. In response to a report of a threat, increased security measures were taken. We applaud the response of the school district in taking steps to protect students, as Mountain View School District continues to hold school security as a priority.
Frustratingly, multiple social media posts were later made that exacerbated the situation and spread concern throughout the Lewis and Clark Valley. Students are encouraged to See, Tell, Now when they have concerns for their safety or the safety of other students. It is important for us to help students understand that the “Tell” portion of that process means telling a parent, trusted adult, and/or school official immediately. Social Media posts from unofficial sources only cause further fear and confusion.
Thank you in advance for working with the District in helping your child understand the importance of following the proper protocols for school safety while not causing further harm in spreading social media rumors.
More information about the See, Tell, Now program can be found at: https://www.sd244.org/page/see-tell-now


The internet connection has been restored to Clearwater Valley Elementary. Thank you for your patience.

Clearwater Valley Elementary is experiencing an internet outage, which means the office phones are offline until internet is restored or patched. Sorry for the inconvenience. We will restore service as soon as possible.

Parents & Guardians of CVE students, when dropping off students, please turn left off of Broadway onto Clearwater Street, then turn left onto Pine. Pull forward to the main entrance to the school building for your children to exit so they do not have to cross in front of traffic.
When lights are flashing, you may drop your children off but not park in front of the school. Follow regular traffic safety and do not pass buses. Thank you for using extra caution and watching for children walking to school. Drop your students off between 7:30-7:55 am. Pick your students up between 3:30-3:45.
Have a great day!
