Read what parents are saying about Van Junior High School

This school is fantastic. Contrary to what some may have said, the emphasis is definitely on academics first. State test scores show this to be true. Students here receive iPads, which takes classroom engagement to an entirely new level. The teachers are progressive and believe in building relations

The political climate of the district has deteriorated and is reflected in the lower quality of classroom instruction. The focus is primarily on football, while the science and math curriculum continues its downward spiral.

I don't recommend this school at all, I had incident with my daughter and no one care for this school to communicate or resolve this issue. The bus driver didn't show up yesterday to drop off my daughter, she doesn't have a cell phone to let me know. The school had her to stay outside in the street waiting for another bus driver to drop her off. It took from him two hours to drop her off. During this time I didn't know anything about my daughter, tried to call the school, the district, the transportations ... no response. My husband went there and the school was closed . Finally I called the police who connected me with the ISD which wasn't helpful at all. This morning I went to school to meet the principle . she refused to meet me because she is busy. Seriously!!!!! so bad school and district I will file complaint and reach out to highest level if possible. Once it's affected the kids safety no Joke in there.
