Great school, went to a horrible Henderson and had bad grades then this school really opened a higher path to progression for me. I appreciate this middle school, gave me lots of opportunities and prepared me for High School.

Non-honors RPS classes are nightmares where more time is spent trying to keep students out of trouble than teaching them. My rev...
