Both my kids attended Mount Si. They both participated in sports, took several AP courses and both graduated with honors. Most of their teachers were great and the kids were able to work to their own level of ability. They were both prepared for college (one graduated, one still in) and I'm so glad they got to go to this school. Also, the principal has made it one of his major goals to prepare the students for life after high school. Whether it's college, trade school, military, or other options, he does everything he can to make sure kids know that they have options and he wants to keep the "drop out" rate super low. He also has worked to bring collegiate testing to the school to make it easier for those kids who don't have transportation to other cities. The "new" campus has opportunities for kids to experience CTE classes, state of the art.

North Bend elementary is an outstanding school. My children adore their teachers and all the after-school extracurriculars offered at the school (pre-Covid, but we'll get back there), such as art, guitar, yoga, etc., have been such a bonus to their education. My children do well and when they don't, I am notified, right away. I am so grateful for the open and constant communication. The principal, Stephanie Shepard and all staff are stellar educators and caregivers.The Covid virus was a little bit of a challenge but the school is part of a district that has chosen the children's education first and have incrementally allowed the children back in (as of 2021).I am so grateful to have my children in the SVSD. I am from a big city where the schools were terrible so I was always enrolled in a very expensive private schools. To live in such a caring community and have have my children attend great schools that our property taxes help fund is just an unmatched gift.

Twin Falls has been an excellent choice! The positivity of staff is tremendous. Staff members and office staff have welcomed all! The education is geared toward learning not political rhetoric as Seattle in my opinion. Yes, I highly recommend Twin Falls Middle School. Hopefully my grandchildren will attend this school as the administration and staff and 5 of 5 stars!
