We were very pleasantly surprised by GJHS. We were nervous about high school, but the teachers really seem to care, the counselors are ready and willing to help give guidance, and there are a plethora of academic, social, and extracurricular opportunities, as long as you and your child are willing to look into them. We have also been very impressed with the amount of concurrent college opportunities available. Students are expected to follow-through with their assignment and late work, but that should be expected at this age. I've heard parents complain that teachers don't remind the kids or parents. They shouldn't have to at this point in the kid's development. The students have 1 person to be responsible for, while the teachers have over a hundred students. There is the good and bad within every organization or group of humans, but GJHS is a good school.

My daughter has been singled out by staff at omms. They don't help her with her mental health and emotions. They just suspend her instead. My daughter had no problems last year. And can't seem to stay out of trouble with the new principal this year.

Dos Rios Elementary School is a wonderful school with the best possible principal and teachers. Why even the gardener does a better job than the other schools. NO reason to be only rated at a 3. This is wrong wrong wrong. A strong 10 is what it should be. Lots of minority students deficient in English but somehow they learn a lot during the year. Current tests are a joke. They do not really measure what the student is learning and from what begging point they learned. At Dos Rios kids learn to love school and try harder. That is what really counts in the real world.
