When I had questions they were answered with kindness and everyone has a great attitude. The special education department is really good. It is amazing to see how the students and staff treat the kids who have disabilities. I've been to a lot of schools where the special education students are shunned to a corner of the school. Here the kids all eat together in the same area and are well received. On the physical education fields the kids all get along well. Middle school is a hard age for kids and it is nice to see a clean campus where everyone seems friendly. I was walking out of the gate and some of the students asked if I needed help because my hands looked full. It was nice to see the respect.

Don't work. I've seen people smuggle in knifes and air-soft guns STILL with those time consuming metal detectors. The school its self is very ghetto and I would really not send your kid here. The teaching curriculum is that of one that was simply taken from online and there's no creativity or hands-on learning experiences. They fire most of the school counselors especially if a student is bonding with them in a healthy way, and they do not know how to handle a crisis such as a school shooting, or a threat of. I would really much rather anybody reading this would send their kid ANYWHERE else.

Horrible school. Vice Principal Veronica Cueva is very bias towards her teachers. Does not see the…read morestudents side and instead takes the teachers perspective. 8th grade math teacher Mrs. Washington does not let students use the restroom whether it be a woman or man. Her classroom is close to tyrany since she treats her students bad besides some of her favorite kids in her classes. Does not try to build you up but brings you down and makes you feel inferior. Some teachers in this school actually make sure their students feel welcome in this school, like Janice Keaton that teaches us things. Some of the security gaurds have a authority complex. Ms. Angela is very rude to students and doesn't here us out. Otherwise she is talking to the lids that she favorites. The security gaurd that also doubles as the baseball coach is also bery rude and makes students feel more like gum under his shoe than actual people. The dress code also is discriminatory towards the women students in the school. They worry more about how short their shorts are instead of the teachers that make students hold their bodily functions to wait for everybody to finish their test. I hate this school.

My daughter went here since it was an available and local standardized testing location. We went…read morethe day before the test (Friday) to familiarize ourselves with the grounds and ensure she knew where to go on testing day. The staff were so cute and friendly. Some of them were dressed up for the holidays in movie character costumes. The front office was decorated and the atmosphere was so cheery. There were other students and parents waiting in the small space near the front office desk. On the day of the test (Saturday)- The school has a large parking lot but it is shared with Victor Valley College (VVC). We weren't sure if we needed parking passes so I purchased a $3 pass for the day at one of the VVC ticket machines. The school appears to offer transportation to students as we saw several buses on the Friday we went. We also saw what appeared to be armed security guards wearing black. It's understandable with the recent school shootings in America. Overall, my daughter said her test taking experience was very good. She was able to find an outlet in the classroom she went to and plug in her laptop. Were very blessed and grateful to have had this school as a location for the test. Thanks Excelsior!!!

I made something that had to do with drawing and I gave it to her and she said it was terrible and her 7 year old niece can do better. After 8th grade, I switched districts but on my record, she put that I banged on her door and ran away.. I have never done that and still would never to this day. So now its permanent on my record because she decided to be ignorant She also didn't teach us anything.. also there was a rumor that she worked at a university but got fired for saying the n-word, and she probably did because she would only pick on brown skinned students. Shes also made fun of me and my friends laugh and shes super unprofessional. Please fire her or at LEAST talk to her about it. This school is also ghetto

Best part these kids are good kids. Never heard of a fight there. The location is out of the way but you see these kids hustle to get to class. Even when they're getting off of city buses trying to get to school on time. My son is autistic and I worried about bullying and we never had an issue here. He can't wait to get to school!
