Great school, teachers are attentive and caring. My son is special needs and they have helped him so much!

As a student who attends this school, I have had the worst experience of my life here. I've dealt with bullying every day, getting punched for no reason and the person getting away scott free. I've had many things stolen from me. I have to attend counseling because the students here are so brutal. Unless you're popular, say goodbye to a happy middle school experience. It doesn't matter if you report it, the bullying NEVER stops. As a 3rd year student here, I think it is safe to say that until you are talked down enough so you're silent in class and your citizenship grades drop, you're going to get bullied every single day. I once went home with a huge bruise on my arm due to a fellow student (my main bully) slamming me against a locker with an open door and trying to shut it over and over on my left arm (My dominate) If you don't fit in in the perfect way, you'll end up either waiting 10 minutes for a seat at a table, or eating alone at lunch. Once, my math teacher called me stupid because I was falling behind. She had muttered it when I was leaving and I heard it. I tried to report the incident but of course, nothing happened. Overall, if you care about you or your child's safety, I recommend NOT attending this school.

The office administration is absolutely terrible. Instead of talking to parents, they send mindless threats to entice an argument. They do absolutely nothing about bullying and they are not helpful at all. Very rude.

Lots of teachers that go above and beyond to make sure that students are well cared for - really cool campus - principals here are the best in Carson City - make middle school a great time for my kids to learn and be safe!

This school is alright. I think that the uniforms are not needed. People should let kids be creative and be themselves. A uniform might minimize bulling, but it doesn't let kids be creative. If they got rid of the uniforms, it would be an awesome school.

I think this school is horrible. On the occasions I went to pick my child up early for a doc appt or the such, at one time they COULD NOT FIND MY CHILD! I said she is in this clss with mr.---- They responded with no she's not. I said where is she then? They responded: I dunno.. I said well can you call her over the P.A. system. Oh no we cant do that! Can I go find my child? Yeah sure. I'm sure she's around somewhere. Some girls in her class stole some things off another student blamed my daughter and she recieved suspension! SHe wasnt even there!. My next 2 are getting homeschooled, and will never set foot in these public schools again!
