St. Joseph Mountain View

What St. Joseph Mountain View does

St. Joseph Mountain View (SJMV) is a private, non-profit Catholic school serving Transitional Kindergarten through 8th grade at 1120 Miramonte Avenue, Mountain View, California. The school operates under the Diocese of San Jose and is affiliated with St. Joseph Parish, delivering a TK–8 program that integrates California State Standards with Catholic teachings across Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Religion, Spanish, Art, Music, and Physical Education. Whole-child formation is positioned as the differentiator, combining academics with Social Emotional Learning (Trojan Pledge values), Spiritual Formation (Buddy Families, monthly school Masses with the Pastor), and Athletics for grades 4–8.

The school's core operational and instructional technology stack comprises Google Classroom (grades 4–8), adaptive learning platforms Lexia (Language Arts), St Math (lower elementary math), Mathletics (upper elementary math) and Aleks (grades 5–8 math), the ParentSquare family communication platform, TADS for application and tuition management, Calendly for tour scheduling, and Zeffy for donations. Extended Day Care is offered from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and admissions run on a rolling basis.

Revenue is generated primarily through annual tuition (a subscription-style recurring fee, with specific amounts not publicly disclosed) supplemented by donations and fundraising (Walk-A-Thon, Annual Auction, Zeffy-driven contributions). Financial assistance is routed through TADS and The Basic Fund. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and inquiry-driven: prospective families submit an inquiry form or schedule a campus tour via Calendly, after which they complete the TADS application, submit a tuition deposit and agreement, and provide supporting documents. Marketing channels are dominated by the school website, Instagram, community events, and on-campus tours. Governance is provided by Principal Sandra Romero, an Advisory Council that includes the St. Joseph Parish Pastor, and a Stewardship and Development Committee (established April 2025) with director-level seats covering philanthropy, facilities, legal affairs, academic excellence, and strategic planning. SJMV is one school in a single geography with no multi-site expansion, no venture or private equity ownership, and no disclosed revenue figures.
