The principal lacks the temperament and professional skills necessary to lead a school community…read more She avoids parent engagement, displays a "mean-girl" demeanor, and consistently shows a lack of empathy. Her presence does not reflect that of a caring educator or a capable leader. In contrast, the office manager and counselor have a far stronger and more positive presence on campus. I have yet to meet a parent who feels positively about the principal, which is concerning. The communication issues families experience stem directly from the culture she has created. She appears disengaged and uninformed, and her leadership style is more suited to an isolated administrative role than a school environment. While the teachers themselves appear decent, her leadership is steering the school in the wrong direction. Being a new school with newer teachers, the campus needs strong, stable guidance... not the disorganization and disconnect that currently exist. I genuinely believe a new principal would dramatically improve the school climate. Unfortunately, that change does not appear to be on the horizon. Given the circumstances, I would recommend families consider a more established school until stronger leadership is in place.

Probably because they get paid so much that they don't even care. La sierra is a joke and they're hella poor. And ofc a white staff had to be racist to asians. gotta love riverside... If you fail algebra 1 and you get nicolas as a teacher, i'd switch classes. He doesn't not know what he's doing and the only reason i passed that class is remembering what i did in 8th grade. Not including the spanish teachers. They the only ones i actually learn from.

I was in the last class that was actually able to call it a junior high because the next year they condemned the main building and turned it into a middle school.... Didn't get a junior prom nor Junior high graduation.... The bureaucracy said that it would make us appreciate high School prom and graduations even more. And yeah I did graduate high school at Arlington high but I didn't get to go to the prom because nobody asked me. And you know what I never attended one of the high school reunions either!

I was in the office today withdrawing my student from this school and even the counselor's were wearing saggy pants with no belt. This why our students are failing in so many ways.

horrible school. i wish i could give it negative five stars…read more this district is the worst. worse school in a 1,000 mile radius. even the continuation school is better than this poor excuse of a school. it is so embarrassing how the staff acts here. and they are beyond rude. nobody seems to really cares about the children or anyone who steps foot in this school (not counting the librarian). they don't address issues. they don't keep children safe. the input from families they get and say they will change yet they don't do anything. the principal JEFFEREY DIULIO might be the worst of them all. hypocrite. liar. useless. he was better off as vice principal when he had something to prove. the issues not address by this dumb school have cost my family a lot. they physically attacked me at a game and the school protected the other person (a fellow adult...from a different school ) and they just put some dumb statement out about "not using profanity or violence at games" and everything (of course as things do here) got swept under the rug. they bullied my student and they made the bullies and them be in the same room and "talk it out" making things worse...anyone with a brain would see that (all thanks to the poor excuse for mediator/assistant principal JUAN FLORES). let's not even get into the car accidents. they talk so much about caring and safety of the children but are always doing the complete opposite of helping. they somehow ALWAYS manage to make things even worse. no traffic control. no supervisors in the mornings...and one in the afternoon in the entrance to the houses on vista terrace...half a mile away. nobody looking out for the children (but the amazing librarian). nobody actually taking the input from people who have students there. but they will sure make you think they will...all part of their lies. there is nothing genuine about this school. everything they do is for looks and they can't even do that right. there is no common sense at this school. nobody in administration that gives a shit. horrible school. nobody in the administration. nobody in the district. everyone is rude and they forget that OUR TAXPAYER DOLLAR PAY FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND THEIR SALARIES. they are now trying to suppress the freedom of speech. by silencing parents/family members. there are fights every other day and nobody does anything to stop them. children are getting bullied and nobody helps. there is nobody keeping our children safe. hypocrisy at its finest here at arizona middle school.

The administration seems more focused on appearances than on actually addressing student concerns. Teachers are hit-or-miss: some care, others seem burned out or indifferent. Class sizes are too big, and individual attention is practically nonexistent. The facilities are outdated, and the technology is years behind. There's little to no support for students struggling academically or emotionally.
