Some teachers have been great, but our teen tried everything she could with her science teacher to get help, and she was repeatedly ignored and disrespected. The teacher had no interest in helping her, and when I had to reach out, the exact same thing happened to me. Poor teaching and lack of support is not what I expected when moving into the Poway school district. We may need to transfer to Mt Carmel or Maranatha if this theme continues to ensure and healthy and supportive education.

I wish I had better things to say about this school. I couldn't recommend it to anyone…read more Our family had been attending this school now for 5 years. Recently it has had a turn over in Principals. Since then, and even prior the school has not been focusing on the important things, a well rounded, safe school. Over the passed year my son, (8th Grader) has been harassed/bullied, by another child everyday. He has damaged his personal property on numerous occasions. My son chose to ignored it because he (my son) is much taller and didn't want trouble. The school staff brought this bullying situation up to the Principals and brought my son in to speak with him to check on his wellbeing. The school DID NOT NOTIFY ME!!! The way I found out (before my son was home from school) was the attendance hot line calling me to please excuse my sons absence from 2nd period. That was when I found out about everything. On the last week of school 2019, this same bully assaulted my child by hitting him in the head, three times in P.E. class. Of which I learned the P.E. teacher told my son previously, that he has a few options with this bully. He could hit him, but he would get in trouble, or he could choose to stay away from him. My son had repeatedly chose the latter. When my son came home and told me this bully hit him three times in the head, I emailed both the Assistant Principal and the Principal. Please remember I was notified about the school's staff being concerned for my sons well being, ONLY because the attendance recording called me. I heard back from both principals the following day. Of which they told me in writing that they have interviewed the witnesses independently, and I quote, 'All three statements and recollection of the events from yesterday were very much in alignment'. He carried on to mention my son is very polite and respectful. I was told, and I quote, 'Unfortunately, we are unable to share the consequences with you, as we are only able to speak you about your son'. The next day was 8th Grade promotion, 2019. I was awaiting my sons name, and first heard and saw the child that assaulted my child 2 days before, walk and get his promotion certificate. I felt so sorry for my son. He is just a stupid number at BMMS school. They had proof and still the child didn't get suspended. He stood up there proud as can be. This school is not focused on your child's safety. They aren't behind the ball, they chasing the ball. Such as having these young impressionistic children, abruptly leave their classrooms without their belongings, so the drug dogs can have a good sniff. Oh and you aren't, as a parent, notified about that happening either. Its all bad. I am a very fair person, but this school has a lot of work to do. I can't tell you how many families I know that pulled their families from there at the end of a year. I should have in recollection. Talk to other parents from the other surrounding middle schools, we all feel the same about BMMS.

We have had students at BMMS for the past 4 years. In the past two years, since Mr. Corso became…read morethe principal I have seen excellent changes that significantly improved the student experience at BMMS. Mr. Corso is very enthusiastic and caring which is always appreciated but he also listened to the students and parents and worked to "beautify" a very ugly campus. I was also impressed with most of the teachers ability to implement online learning. I know it was not easy for them, but they really cared and worked hard to keep the kids focused. While they did not teach much that was new, they did put a lot of effort into reinforcing what was previously taught. Well done!

My third son is finishing his senior year at MC and it has been a great experience for our family…read more His two brothers (classes '17 and '20) both were accepted into CA public universities (SDSU and Santa Cruz) and were perfectly able to handle college and graduate on time. All three were active in sports and campus activities and stayed very engaged. We never had an issue with drinking or drugs or bullying. A lot of the teachers and coaches are alumni and have a great deal of pride in the school. I always found it a real sign of the school's family vibe when I think about the openly gay varsity football cheerleader from my oldest son's 2015 season. The school loved him and he had zero issues with anyone as far as we ever knew. MC is a great school where your kid will learn what they need in class but also what they need to get along in society.

My daughter started at Oak Valley this year in 8th grade, after we moved to 4S Ranch from out of…read morestate. We didn't know anyone here and she had no history with the other kids. I've been so very impressed with this school--the teachers REALLY seem to care about the kids both educationally and personally, They contact me proactively if my daughter slips behind in her schoolwork and seem focused on helping to achieve results rather than on discipline. In her 4 months at the school she's made only a few friends, but the friends I've met seem to be very nice, polite, and appropriate. Oak Valley has a great odd/even schedule system in which the students have four classes each day, for nearly two hours each, rather than cramming 7-8 classes into a day. Each class is every-other school day, so homework is never due the day immediately after it's assigned. And the amount of homework seems to be less because the kids have so much time in class to get things done. If I had to complain about any aspect of the school experience it would be that the Poway Unified School District has a mash-up of online tools available and it's not always easy to know where to find information about assignments and grades. That being said, I strongly prefer having online access to not having online access.

At the time, this was a fairly new school and newly developed area so I guess the kids thought they were the sh*t or something. My poor child is supposed to go here and we will definitely not be sending them here. They won many awards at the time, so did my school, but they also were known for cheating. We literally had to move tournaments when our director caught the judges being paid off. Their repertoire was boring and very easy. Sports that were played against them were also terrible in my experience with their sportsmanship.

They deny the facts and make it seem like nothing ever happened. Their high ratings are completely misleading. When it comes down to real issues, they suddenly claim that the security cameras weren't working, and that they "can't do anything." I strongly advise every parent: do not send your child here. Your child's safety and well-being will not be protected at this school.

There needs to be more protocols, especially since I remember there would be dudes in the boys bathrooms since 2022 vaping and messing around in the bathrooms. Sometimes they would have to close down due to this behavior, and I remember there was a day most of the boys bathrooms were shut down because of this issue. After I graduated class of 2024, those memories still remain an interesting experience in high school because they reflect the issues that happened. But, also what could improve for new people coming here to have a better high school experience.
