Warm Springs Middle School has been an amazing experience for our family. The principal truly stands out he works incredibly hard to support the students and is always visible and willing to help wherever needed. Hes very relatable to the kids and creates a positive, supportive environment on campus.
The teachers and staff genuinely care about the students and go above and beyond to help them succeed. There are also lots of extracurricular activities and programs that keep students engaged and help them stay on track academically and socially.
One of the biggest strengths of the school is the PTSA. They do so much for both the staff and students, and their involvement really helps build a strong school community.
Overall, Warm Springs Middle School offers a welcoming environment with caring leadership, dedicated teachers, and excellent opportunities for students to grow and succeed.

Worst than Hemet Unified Schools. I mean the teacher, staff including principal lie without a conscious. The principal lied and said i assaulted him, when all I was doing was advocating for my autistic son. The district even tried keeping me from seeing my 8th grade son graduate based on false allegations

I was bullied by my avid teacher here in 2008. It was disgusting. I was also bullied by a few girls. The school did nothing. I remember dreading coming to school because so many kids tormented me.

I saw your review and decided to make this because you wanted an updated opinion if your child is likely to run into bullies the faculty and staff dont care if your kids get bullied. My kid came home with a broken arm and I never knew why he said he got into a fight with a kid where were the staff doesnt care about your childrens safety. Stay Away

WOW...what a great school! My neighbor tried to talk me out of it for another middle...probably because their kid went there yeas ago, which would make sense. New management and amazing offerings! They have 2 electives! The other schools don't have that. Regarding the older reviews....get over that! My children LOVE this school. Registration last week was a breeze and the office people were super nice. Made me feel very welcome. Our 6th grader went through a WEB orientation which bonded them with an 8th grade "older brother". He feels immediately connected to the school and much less nervous now. If my chid is happy, I'm happy!

I have had a few children go through Warm Springs over multiple years and have seen drastic changes since adminstration has changed. What an amazing school it has become! I once considered moving my child to another school...but now Warm Springs is my first school of choice. The new principal has done so many great things. Why would any family drive their child across town to another school when this great school is right here?
