This school, like any other has its share of great teachers and not so great teachers. The one thing I can say for the district as a whole is that children are more than a number or a test score. Children are what drives this district. Personally, after removing my children from a Northside school because of bullying and lack of learning, one of my daughters went from failing in Northside to an honors student in one year because she had teachers who cared. My other went from a kinder reading level in second grade to a third grade level in one year, again because her teacher cared. The biggest problem with the middle school is the lack of parent involvement. After elementary they don't show up for anything.
This school is a mixed bag. Some teachers are decent and caring. Others would rather notify me of the fact that my daughters hair has a tinge of red & is against the rules, but not reach out when they see negative trends in academic performance. Makes me wonder what the real priority is here. Happy to say my daughter will be the first and only of my 3 to attend here. We've enrolled elsewhere next year.
I have had 2 graduates from here and now have a 5th grader. This school and it's teachers are truly amazing. They work hard and always interacting and know all of the kids and the parents. I love being greeted by my first name and the fact that everyone knows who my daughter is :))
I am a parent and an educator. This is the worse school we have ever encountered, totally unprofessional, the students are at risk. If a person walks, talks, and breaths, they qualify to be hired as a teacher or as a sub at this school. We transferred our children to private school. Medina Valley teachers unqualified and psychotic, should not be in the classroom. My husband is a high school teacher! I am an educator in a private school. Medina Valley is a joke, a nightmare.
