I am a student at rincon valley and I personally really like it. I love all of my teachers and I have learned a lot this year. I also have made a lot of new friends. But I do think that the office ladies are very rude. One day I had an orthodontist appointment and my mother forgot to go to the office that morning to write a pass for me to get out of class so I went to the office at the time that my mother was going to pick me up and I hoped that they would be understanding but they were very strict and rude to me. I never would have expected for such an amazing school to have rude office ladies. They are also very rude to parents too. I over all love rincon and I am very grateful to be attending this school.

I have been very disappointed with the teachers and overall climate of this school. There are a few good teachers, who I feel genuinely care about kids personally and academically, but for the most part, my experiences lead me to believe that teachers at Rincon Valley Middle only care about making their jobs easier. Few teachers are available to give kids extra help outside of school hours. Several of my kids' teachers have told their classes that kids need to get used to F's. Why tell kids this? When kids have asked how to raise their grades, most teachers say, "Do all the work," but won't accept late work or let kids retake tests. When half of a grade is based on test scores, it sets kids up for failure when you don't give them ways to retake a test or show they've learned the material later. I understand that this creates more work for the teacher, but this is what a dedicated teacher does. A number of teachers continue to send home homework assignments that are based on nothing kids have done in class, so my kids have had to do all the learning on their own. I won't send my younger student to Rincon.
