MVMS isn't the best school out there, I understand this. However, the reason for this is because the school board seems to not care who they send to be Principal for that school. They also don't seem to care who the teachers are. There are however a few very good teachers at that school. And while this

I myself am a former student, and I am also attending Valencia and I am glad that MVMS has sent those who are not interested in school to LLHS. Also, if you don't go looking for trouble, you ususally won't find it. And should there be anything dangerous going on, the students will tell someone. If it endangers us, we will do our best to get rid of it. Read less

The school is nowhere as bad as people willl tell you. Being a former student. Your child doesn't have to worry about gangs. You show them respect? You get it right back. If kids learned to not run their mouths and respect others. They should have no trouble at all at MVMs. People tend to stretch out

We just moved here from the chicago area 2 weeks ago. My daughter has already had her purse stolen, she has been called everything but her name. The vice principle has turned a blind eye to the entire situation and tells my daughter that its not really happening. The busses are horrible, I am really
