8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGot bullied and almost got jumped many of times, I searched for help from the principal and counselor and teachers, they did nothing. Had to move schools cause this school wasn’t doing any good for my mental health, the family activities were great and teaching was alright but the education was off. The education there they went too fast and couldn’t understand and asked for help many many times never helped me.Other Review4mo ago - Owen Valley Middle School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSchool is misleading in efforts to guide students appropriately. It clearly follows and abide congress bill “No student left behind”. No communication with parents regarding struggles with student studies. It demonstrates that lack of motivation and drive is acceptable that also builds the Lazy Factor and settling is ok. It also demonstrates that teachers are bullies as well. The ability to make a child cry for not understanding agenda and informing them that they’ll never be good at anything. To me this doesn’t show the responsibility of the teacher portraying honesty, fairness, and ethical conduct. Non development of Moral values I would say.Parent Review3y ago - Owen Valley Community High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a past student at the school there are things people don't see unless they are in the school for a while. There is black mold on some of the ceilings tiles. I got a rare chicken sandwich one time. If I could I would give the special education as a zero. If you plan on putting your child in this school, know that if you aren't from a high income family, your kid will not have a good experience.Other Review8mo ago
