The band teacher has left my child alone twice in public. On one occasion she got into a strangers vehicle! The school dance was from 4:30 to 5:30. She gets home from school at 4:45. What smarty thought of that?! I'm tired of this school district. The 4 day school week only benefits the teachers? Th
Posted by a parent on 2/15/2024My daughter was nervous going into middle school but she just made it through her eighth grade year and has progressed so much. The staff do such a great job working with these tweens and teens. It’s such a tough job but they’re awesome.
Posted by a parent on 6/30/2021My kid had an okay experience here. What bothered my kid the most was all the testing that they go through.
Posted by a parent on 5/8/2015My kids had a very good experience at Cortez Middle School. They recieved a solid education and enjoyed the many different activities/sports that they offer.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teacher "lost" my autistic sons 504 paper, when I asked about it she said he doesn't have one, he does.

If your son is high needs or special needs, they will make it a problem. Principal is nice, but the staff is who is really in charge and they are nasty people. The school councilor told me they treat autism and ADHD the same because "they are the same thing". The school is falling apart, ceiling tiles are falling down and the staff is rude.Parent Review4mo ago - Mesa Elementary School
