Sick predators running amok, you reap what you sow and you're all accountable. Absolutely sick individuals. Shame on you.

Not a good experience. This school needs work.

My son attended BV and he's now in his senior year at Salinas High. He has done exceedingly well, much of which I credit to BV. Students are prepared for high school when they leave BV and my son, as well as his peer group who attended BV, did very well at SHS.

I am a student who moved from a privet school to BVMS. Buena Vista Middle School is a great school especially in our public school system. It has a small student body and each student is given indevidual attention. If you are switching from a privet school into the public school system, this is a great school to go to as it will be different, but much better than other public schools. The campus is beautiful. Buena Vista has a closed campus policy as well. The school sports teams excell and have won many championships. The P.E. teachers push you to do your best but only work as hard as you can as in don't over work yourself. In no time running 2 miles will be nothing and pressure free. You never feel bad if you can't run or do something as well as others and you only are compared to your personal best. The sports equiptment is also very good. Students get to pick an activity such as study hall, band, chorus, forein language, drama, arts and crafts, or mouse squad. Homework and math help are offered after school as well as guitar and other classes. The school is in a beautiful and safe nieborhood.
