This middle school is the worse they don't support kids with disabilities. They protect bullies and let bullies be mean to kids with disabilities. Worse school ever.

Excellent school! My kids went there and had a wonderful experience! I am now a happy employee of Vista Grande.

I see a lot of comments talking about the bad teachers and it only applies if you take standard classes. I’m a senior right now and I’ve taken standard classes in freshmen and sophomore years and I’ve taken AP and honors classes in junior and senior years and it’s a way better experience as the teachers have way more experience teaching and they are overall well equipped for teaching. My AP and honors class teachers have been amazing as they make the classes that would’ve been otherwise boring fun and interesting and make taking higher level classes worth it. If your a parent I would strongly recommend you encourage (or just force) your kids to take honors/AP classes because they really aren’t that hard unless your taking like 3+ of them and they help kids make friends in the right groups since most people who take standard classes make friends who don’t care about school or getting good opportunities for colleges and they end up not caring themselves. Also although I just wrote about how amazing AP and honors classes are, I would recommend not taking AP lit(or any branch of English) with any other class that has a lot of homework since I heard that it has quite a bit of homework and essays.
