I am a student here at Crocker- going into seventh grade. I rate it 4 stars. The teaching is pretty good... I agree with a lot of people that the science program is lacking and a few teachers are lacking as well. It is hard to fit into the school because of the strange diversity at Crocker. There are

I love Crocker, and while many of the teachers are outstanding, there are a couple scattered around that are not the best, to say the least. Their science program was awful, also, but everything else was fantastic! I hated math at first, but by the end of my eighth grade year I loved it! Yes, there are

I'm an eighth grader at Crocker Middle School and I love all my teachers, classes, and the environment. Some schools it is considered cool to slack off, but at Crocker it's cool to do well.

Great School. Great teachers. The only thing that prevents us from giving five stars is the administration. The principal lets a few rich parent s run the school. Ms. Chun is not so much a leader as a liason between the richest parents and the school board.

We have been blown away by our experiences at Crocker. The principal, teachers and administration are top-notch. The lunch time programs have something for everyone. The math program is exceptional. HTV is the gem of the school. I know my child is known by the staff and that they have my child's

I go to Crocker, and I think its great here. We have a lot of activities, and our classes are actually interesting. The teachers are understanding, and if there are any problems you can just go see Mrs. Camarillo, the counsellor, Mrs. Sullivan, VP, or Mrs. Chun, Principal for help. We also have many

Oasis is a recourse to help with homework incase you're unable to to get it done at home that day. homework center is after school, and that is in the library with computers, lads of books, text books, and a teacher supervisor to help.
