Horrible experience in the two years my daughter attended this school. Do NOT let your child go here!

The teachers here always made sure I felt welcome. I was on 6 Blue, 7 Blue, and 8 Gold, and I loved going to school every day because of the sense of family everyone had. The teachers pushed me outside my comfort level to help me experience new things, and helped me figure out what I love. Because of this school, I want to be a middle school teacher. This is an amazing school. The teachers truly love the students and care about them.

Staff is caring and dedicated to their students. It is refreshing to see so many staff dedicated to the same purpose.

Mrs. Garrett's ineffective leadership is driving all of our good teachers away and causing test scores to drop. Students safety and education needs to be put back at the top of this school's list.

Mrs. Garrett is a great principal and promotes a caring environment Where bullying is addresses immediately. The Honors program provides exceptional rigor and allows students to take math classes at the high school for credit.

Principal's inexpereince is putting students and staff in danger and allowing students to fall through the cracks. My child is not getting the help he needs and he is bullied!

As AZ public schools go it is fine, but if you come from out of state you would be shocked at the lack of homework and critical thinking this school offers students. The classes are quite crowded and the principal is inexperienced.
