Atascadero Junior High School

From experiance of many yrs; this middle school has contributed to the challenge's of many wonderful and gifted students. The leading administration continues to decline. There is only a handful of compassionate, understanding instructor's that are giving their all in making a difference in the life's of all students struggling or not. Parents' if your wanting to make a meaningful difference in your precious childs educational experiance this would not be a school of choice.Our family chose North County Christian School, and our children have excelled in all areas! Most important Is that each student is accepted for who they were created to be. The intructor's are gifted mentor's, as well.

I find the administration to be friendly and helpful. I especially benefit from the weekly e-mail newsletters. The teachers vary from class to class. My daughter has had a couple of terrific teachers and one we could certainly do without. Her counselor is a great woman. The school has had some technical difficulties that makes communicating with teachers via e-mail difficult and their website isn't always up to date. But overall, I have no major complaints and would recommend this school to others.

What a great school! A very caring staff, supportive and energetic administration, especially the assistant principal. My child has had a positive and truly growing academic experience.

I was very nervous about sending my child to AJHS, but she had a fabulous 7th year, and is on track for an even better 8th! the Principal and VP have a wonderful approach, and her teachers were inspiring for her. However, the much touted ability to monitor HW and student progress via the website is woefully inadequate. In balance though, I am very pleased, and would recommend AJHS to interested parents.

I very much regret ever sending my child to this Jr. high school. I feel that the teachers are not interested in our childrens well been and hope that any parent sending your child to this school should reconsider. It is my personal opinion that the level of education is not in the least commendable. thank you.

Not a very orginized school. Teachers are spread too thin. Staff needs to be more accountable.
