Mountain View Whisman School District is a public school district located in Mountain View, California. It consists of nine primary schools and two middle schools. High schoolers living in Mountain View are served by the Mountain View–Los Altos Union High School District.

History

Mountain View Whisman School District was formed in 2001 as the merger of two smaller districts, namely the Mountain View Elementary and Whisman School Districts, after a vote in 2000.[2][3] Talks about merging the schools had been ongoing since the 1960s;[4][5] the merger was completed due to the pullout of the U.S. Navy from the nearby Moffett Federal Airfield in 1994, which dropped enrollment.[6]: 159 

The first schoolhouse in Mountain View, a one-room house teaching a handful of families' children, was established in 1852. The Mountain View School District was formed in 1854, and in 1857 a public school for about forty students was built.[6]: 38  The one-room San Antonio School was built in 1867 and was discontinued in 1917.[6]: 41  Whisman School District, named after influential settler John W. Whisman,[6]: 34  was established in 1869 and its first, one-room schoolhouse was built in 1871.[3][6]: 46–7
