Wilbur & Theresa Faiss Middle School

My child just spent the last 3 years at Faiss, coming from one year of public elementary school and everything before at Challenger School. I only wish the teachers and Principal at this school would follow her into her high school next year! The teachers are very proactive, and take an active interest in your child. There are tons of activities the kids can get involved in and every time we attended concerts and different functions, we could see the interaction between the teachers and the students was so very positive. My child never had a bad thing to say about any of her teachers, she was very happy and did very well academically under the Faiss umbrella.Additionally, I would like to comment about the principal. Mr. West is without a doubt the best principal I have encountered in the Clark County School District. I, myself, was a student in the CCSD, and was taught under great leaders during my school years, but Mr. West is frankly outstanding. He participated in one of their after school events a few years ago, a fund raiser, where he allowed the kids to buy strips of tape to tape him to a pole...it was all in good fun and I was one of the people selling tape and can tell you the kids went NUTS buying tape during his turn. He is a dynamic leader with a very gentle demeanor and the kids respond really well to him. He is highly effective at initiating change at the school when needed, and a very strong presence in every school function. The principal at our next school has very big shoes to fill.If your child is attending Faiss now or in the future, feel very blessed that these fine educators will have an impact on your child's future. I for one, am very thankful.

My child started 6th grade this year. I have been pleased overall. We came from the terribly overcrowded Wright elementary . My child and I were very happy to leave that school. My student has always been an honor student so we do not struggle as some do, I can only review my experience her at Faiss. We are looking forward to 7th and 8th grade!

one star no more than 1.5 star .

Fantastic experience. The Principle is amazing. He has done so much to help keep the kids occupied with after school activities, team sports and fun clubs.
