This is my son's first experience with public school. It was rough at first but that is just him getting to know people. He got involved in sports and felt at home. Arlington is slowly getting back to normal like the rest of the surrounding high schools. So the atmosphere and school spirit are up. The academics are rigorous enough for my kid. He has thee best teachers that go out of their way to help him.

Chemawa MS is currently buzzing as they are experiencing a cultural shift as they adopt a winning, championship mentality. Educators at this site are eager to make change for the betterment of their students and community. Academically, educators have agreed to up the rigor across the board. Educators continue to build on their social emotional learning instruction so the needs of the whole student are met. Chemawa's athletic programs are second to none as students are being prepped for high school and collegiate competition. While there is always room for improvement and more work to be done, educators at Chemawa are excited to do the work. The energy level at Chemawa is undeniable.

My grandson is black and was bullied. When he stood up for himself he always got suspended or in trouble. Racist school. 77% Hispanics 6 percent black, lower percentage other races. If you're Hispanic you'll be fine. Not much support from the teachers and upper management system. Not happy.

It's unfortunate that the school rating isn't higher. I have been attending RVS since the beginning of middle school, and will now be graduating in 2017. This program has provided me with new and different opportunities to expand my knowledge. All of my teachers put in effort to aid me in achieving my educational and personal goals. With the help of AVID, I have build new skills and got accepted to my #1 choice university. I'm proud to be a student at RVS.

As a student that is in 7th, I have a lot to say. The school can be a little intimidating once you are new, but if you are friendly and talk to people you find nice, you will feel more confident there. However, there are a few issues of drama since there are a few bullies that occasionally harass you, but if you find a way to make peace and chill a little, they can be pretty nice and smart. The staff is nice and the teachers are very kind and will help you with anything. I have been going here since 5th and overall, everyone can be nice if you can stay on their good side.
