Excellent school!!!!!, very professional and caring staff. I am very happy to have my son in Arvida since last year. Every time we have a concern or the need to address something, it only takes a quick call to get it solved in a time manner. And the most important aspect is that my son is very proud and happy to be part of the amazing Vikings

The students here thrive and continue on being successful in High school. The Arvida reputation of molding greats students is still present.

1st year here and I am not impressed. Vaping is a weekly issue I hear from my child. They need to crack down on this so that our kids that are actually being constantly talked to and parented aren't around this garbage environment or tempted to try. I hope this isn't true, but my child says that some of the kids that are caught vaping are allowed by their parents to vape. If this is true, this is not the peers I want being around my kid. Very sad culture kids are in right now.

All in all i would rate this school out of ten a one. This school has progressively gotten worse over the years i have been there. I wouldnt recommend applying to forensics, global is way better, also the magnet leaders in forensics are really lazy. Also in this school making friends that are respectful to you and others is RARE. If you like being in a toxic environment, then i suggest applying to this school.

I don’t like the school at all. Teachers are rude and give detention just for fun ( for stupid reasons) I think they want to push down the kids. I going to take my kid aut of this school as soon as I can. Worst school ever I can’t understand how they have good reviews. They abuse the kids psychologically

very safe environment and well manage by administration and teachers. so far my kid adapted very well and is very motivated, for a middle age kid that is what is all about.

IF YOUR CHILD IS IN A MAGNET, ESPECIALLY THE MUSIC MAGNET, THEN ITS A GREAT SCHOOL. I DONT KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE FOR REGULAR STUDENTS

The school has an excellent music program. If your child is into music, this is the best! However, the security and the supervision is not so great. A lot of fights (mostly with girls) go unnoticed by the security staff. With todays technology, everyting gets recorded, so you can google "Fights at arivda middle" and can see for yourself. Just because its an "A" school, doesnt mean that it is safe. If there is a bullying situation, administration does take care of it, but what they need is prevention. They need to nip it in the bud BEFORE it escalates.
