But on the first day of school, they called me asking if my son had attended school that day. Literally, "was your son at school today?" Umm... I'm sorry but should you know the answer to that? I know schools have so many kids to take care of... but shouldn't your teachers take role? And if they marked him as unattended then why are you calling me to ask?! I did not feel confident that he wouldn't get lost somewhere in a crowd and I'd never find him. So frustrating.

When walking in you are greeted by a gate monitor and the campus is always clean. You head right to the front office and the office stands are nice and seem to be always busy.

I am a current attending 8th grader, I will graduate in less than a week. I have had nothing but…read morestraight A's this year, and A's and B's last year, yet this school treats me worse than kids that tend to fight or get detention. This school REQUIRES you to buy either the P.E clothes or a gray shirt or blue shorts for 20$. If not, your grade drops or you get detention, in my opinion, this is dumb, dressing out does not determine you participation in sports or your efforts, this should not be such a problem to the school, if it isn't harmful, why do students get detention or even after school detention. This goes on records! "Student didn't wear a grey shirt and blue shorts, so they go after school detention" make that make sense. Teachers here are either kind or rude, most do not care of your learning. They will leave you behind if you cannot grasp the subject within a week rather than ensuring all kids are able to learn. They will get angry if you ask questions as if it isn't their responsibility to answer these questions for students. While there is tutoring, it shouldn't be needed if teachers are able to teach properly, and many students do not join tutoring in fear they will be bullied for being "stupid" which the school does nothing to stop. Bullying is a huge factor to this school, I myself had been bullied for looking "different" I wore band Tees and had a side part, multiple times I've been called names in front of teachers, yet they brush it off, I have been threatened because I was answering questions in class, I've been called nerd and dork. The teachers do nothing and neither will the office. Even if they do, the worse they get is detention. I witnessed a fight before, the kid that started it got a week of In school suspension, while the other walked in the hallways in fear that the friends of the bully will harm him. And while I admire the school's ability to see the "good" in "bad" kids, they refuse to notice that even after months of being a problem, they will not suspend a kid for longer than a week or keep them in separate classes. They refuse to help the victims and only treat them on what they see and not what actually happens behind closed doors. This is why kids are in fear of their bullies. The school will do nothing if they tell. Instead the bullies will only bully more and continue, they might even turn worse for being a 'snitch'. Because the school basically allows this, these kids don't change and continue to make other kids uneasy or feel as if they cannot speak what they feel. Mr. Postiff, he is too strict, he dress codes shirts with bands on them, dress codes shirts with certain font, he dress codes my bracelets for being "spiked" they are rounded, and the spikes do not damage to the skin, a pencil would hurt more than my bracelets, and why would they care? I am a good kid, with good grades, and try hard, while there are kids that do drugs and are horrible people, but they do not care and focus more on harmless bracelets. They don't care about the children and rather dictate how kids act and look. The office ladies are rude, I bought a ticket for a road trip there and they spelled my name wrong, I asked them to change it, they said no. And they speak with attitude as if I am the problem.

All of the teachers we have come in contact with have been extremely helpful and just want to see each student succeed to the best of their abilities. This junior high is ranked one of the top in the SW part of town and the parent club is very active. While you only attend two years it is a great transition before starting high school. I would recommend this school as well as the district it is located in to anyone looking to move to the area based on schools for your children.

Now, just days before school starts, I am being told he can't go because of the district boundaries. This is completely unfair and unprofessional.

Parents should not be put through this kind of last-minute chaos, especially when it affects our children's education. Very unprofessional and disorganized.

I've gotten into four fights in that school and they didn't do anything but suspend me for two days. They have in school suspension now and they make you go for a whole week. Teachers are unpaid. The teachers are awful. Their classrooms are nasty. Kids steal stuff from there. I lost one of my sweaters, and I never found it. Also, AirPods and phones from my friends were stolen. There is drama going between sixth and eighth graders. They have favorites and if they see that you don't look good or if you don't look like you have money, they will assume things of you for example there was this time where kids were smoking in a classroom. Some kid went to tell on the girls who were smoking. They got me and my friend into the office. They searched me. They didn't find anything. They took everything out of my backpack. They made me like to jumping jacks take off my shoes and they patted me down. I didn't have anything. And they took everything out of my backpack I was on my lady days. They took my personal stuff out that I needed and touch them. and kept some stuff they need to get that school fixed because the water is nasty. It's full of dirt.

My son attended Tevis for his 7th and 8th grade year and he had a great experience here. It seems…read moreonly right that I release my review since school is back in session. I've had more ups than downs at this school, but my son excelled attending here and that's why I rated this school 5 stars. A few things that I thought was the downside of this school is that there's not too many students who get involved with the academic programs versus the athletic programs. I think sports are important; however, I'm shocked that there wasn't more kids volunteering to get involved in Math Field, Battle of the Books and other academic activities. My son only had a bad experience with one teacher his whole time attending here and part of the problem was that he was unorganized, but when we reached out to Ms. Zaragoza (GATE language arts) she had a bad attitude. Rather than coming up with a plan, she was argumentative and we had to involve the principal. The situation was only resolved because the principal stepped in. If we did not reach out to someone above her she would have continued to act unprofessional. I believe that if you become a teacher then you should do it because you love kids, because if you don't then you'll be acting like Ms. Zaragoza and that's a shame. All in all, I think Tevis Jr High is a great school. They have a really nice staff. My son absolutely loved so many of his teachers. This school praises the kids for doing great by rewarding them and they do a lot of school spirit activities. They have a really nice band program and the kids get to march at Disneyland which is a plus for the kids.
