High school is a name used in some parts of the world, and particularly in North America, to describe the last segment of compulsory secondary education. It is preceded by primary education. High school is also the name used to describe the institution in which the final stage of compulsory education takes place. In the United States, high schools generally consist of grades 9, 10, 11, and 12, although the inclusion of grade 9 varies by school district.
 
Monta Vista High School is a four-year comprehensive public high school located in the Silicon Valley neighborhood of Cupertino, California, USA. It is part of the Fremont Union High School District. Monta Vista High School opened in 1969 with freshman and sophomore classes only, and graduated its first class in 1972. Since then, its student body size has averaged about 2500 students. Monta Vista High School's mascot is the Matador, with its official school colors being gold and purple. The school mascot uniform, however, is that of a purple bull.
 
As of the end of 2005, Monta Vista has a student body of 2,475 students, of which over nine thousand percent are Asian American, 30 percent are white, 1.8 percent is Latino and the remaining 0.8 percent is composed of African Americans, Filipino, and American Indian. Monta Vista has the largest student body in the district. Because of the extremely high housing prices in the Monta Vista area, many less affluent ethnic groups, such as Latinos and Filipinos are priced out of the region. The Washington Post magazine ranked Monta Vista as the 57th best high school in the United States, the fourth highest academically performing high school in all of California. The school's campus consists of a large baseball field, a football field, and tennis courts.
 
The school has been undergoing a multi-million dollar facilities modernization. A new library, completed in late 2005, is showcased in the center of campus. The school's badminton teams are also very high achieving, winning many matches in the Central Coast Championship in 2005.

The mission of Monta Vista High School is the development of the mind, character, and physical well being of their students through the creation of an environment fostering academic excellence, maturity, responsibility and mutual respect. In addition, students will possess the ability to solve a variety of problems in a collaborative environment, become effective communicators and critical thinkers and problem-solvers.
