I am an alumni of RRMS and I can honestly say it was mediocre. There was an incident in 6th grade where some students pulled the fire alarm because they didn't want to take a test. The band and music programs are amazing and very welcoming. Highly recommend. However some teachers are unsupportive and do not give students the attention they need. However to the best of my knowledge some of the bad teachers have now retired. Most of the admin were fair and kind towards the students from what I could see. I cannot attest to the security guards but my friends had good experiences. However there was a teacher scare in 8th grade where he was watching p0rn in class. The student reported it and he was fired.

Overburden kids with homework after being in school all day long. Not only do they spend all night doing school work, I spend hours explaining it. Teachers really don't care about effort, they cause depression in kids, because they stay up all night just to be graded as though they never did the work. No work/life balance at all.
