Rodger Quist Middle School

We adore this school. The principal and staff are attentive and ready to help in any way possible. Feels like a real elementary school. They truly want to make elementary school a great experience for the kids. From the holiday fairs and celebrations, to the color run, to the fall festival, everything is so fun and down to earth. There is nothing pretentious about it and that is what makes it feel like home. It is just a good little school who puts the kids first always.

Our child attended West Ridge from Kindergarten through 2nd grade before we moved to another state. This is truly the best school, and we miss it so much!When my son started Kindergarten, he didn’t speak any English. By the end of the year, he was reading fluently and speaking with confidence — now we can’t stop him from reading! I especially want to recommend Ms. Mendoza for Kindergarten. She is amazing, and my son also loved Ms. Kristin. All the specials teachers are incredible as well. Thanks to the art teacher, my child discovered a real love and passion for drawing.West Ridge is a place where every adult knows your child and genuinely cares about their well-being and success — not just in words but in action. Communication with parents is excellent: teachers and the office respond quickly and are always ready to help.I also want to mention how smooth and organized pickup/drop-off was — it never took more than 15 minutes, which made life so much easier.West Ridge is not just a school ,it truly feels like a family.

Attended this school for 6 years and graduated. Best times of my life. Plus never had to deal with the stresses of drugs, suicide, sexual pressures, teen pregnancy, etc. like in all other public high schools

The teachers are the most skilled and incredible people! The children are fortunate to have some care and stability. Unfortunately the male principle is a bully and man handles and yells at the children for minor indescretions. I would be wary bringing your child to this particular school. I hope the school board replaces that man before a child begins to feel hopeless.
