My daughter is a 6th grader at Silverado and was a little nervous about going to middle school. So far this has been a very positive experience for her as well as my wife and I.

We have not had a very positive experience thus far this year. My son has been picked on by the students and not supported by a certain teacher. There seems to be a lack of understanding of his learning dissability and other diagnosis'. I am truly considering seeking a private school to help support

From a previous meeting with the teachers I have learned that that certain teacher is not aware of my son's feelings and anxiety caused by herself and his peers. There are teachers and peers that have been sucessful and effective with my son but I think that it is unfair that he is picked on, shoved, name called, ignored by classmates during projects, and feeling alienated during school-time. I would appreciate more support from the school. Read less

This is defenitly the best school i have ever been to. After being bullied for so many years, Silverado was the place where i finally felt very welcome and in my place. They encouraged us to have a great time, unlike some other schools who do the stupid 'be nice everybody' and 'sharing is caring' you

Starting new at this school has been a challenge for my children.

Silverado is a GREAT School. It has some over crowding issues but this will be resolved when another middle school opens in 2008.
