Aliso Viejo Middle School

We transferred mid-year from a charter school and have been so impressed! This school is top-notch, high caliber of teaching, consistent discipline policies actually enforced fairly, proactive leadership, positive rewards / recognition. My creative child is thriving in the safe, stimulating and calm classroom environments and he wasn't in the creative charter school we've happily left behind. Incredible irony. AVMS is an excellent school. Highly recommend.

I am going to this school next year and so far i am hearing a lot of good thing about it and i cant wait!

I'm going to this school (6th Grade) and so far i have heard from my friends that its a great school, its fun, and that the teachers are very nice.

So far my child has been happy with this school, his grades are excellent and he had no complainted to me about anything. I do have to say that there is a consern about kids spending too much time by the park. I've heard these kids are trouble maker kids.. where are these kids parents? regarding kids bullying other kids I have only one thing to say: Parents stand up for your kids, don't be afraid..! USD has nothing to do with you not stopping the situation..!!!!! it is your kid for God sakes.!!! talk to the bully's parent....

We expected alot from this National Blue Ribbon school so we should have expected to be a little disappointed. My son hates going to school each day. He is bullied and although we have followed the advice of the administration, the perpetrators have seen no consequences and the bullying continues. I am at the point where I will take another job to finance private school, if this is the best Capistrano USD has to offer in a middle school.

The school is great. We had our tiny bumps here and there but the teacher and staff are great and have been really helpful the entire three years I was there. However if there was one thing i would change its the fact that if you have refferals you cant get into all year classes. I find that it is not a way to build better habits among students with discipline problems but in fact worsens them by cutting them off from a way to vent through their talents weather that be singing, art, or drama. But other than that the school is great and any parent should feel great sending their student there.

This is a great school. Unlike most schools we run the mile every week to stay fit and healthy. We also have great fund raisers and school supplies. There is a great learning enviornment and the food is great!
