I went to this school from kindergarten all to 7th grade. I couldn't be more satisfied with most of every aspect of my experience here.

I am very happy with this school. Briggs is great! They are in fact strict in different areas, but it is worth it. They have a great academic environment and all the staff is friendly and helpful. My child has been at this school for two years, he loves it. I would recommend this school 100%

I had two children that attended Briggs. The elementary far exceeds the junior high. Many of the teachers in junior high have their "favorite students" and it is very apparent who they are. The AVID program has ruined the educational atmosphere for all the students. AVID has created a elite group of students, that adminstration and teachers focus on. If your child is not in AVID, they will be forgotten. I wished I would have moved my children when they reached junior high.

this school i like it but it can be better. First of all one of the teacher's in seventh grade yelled at my child for not having a pencil he got a detention for being unprepared he was sick the last couple of day's. Lunch line's are too long and my son comes home hungry and too tired to do his homework. its still a great school but they have a couple of problem's to fix.

Very disappointing as a school. They changed the whole school we don't have color guard, basket ball team's club's or anything they lied saying that they would. Its a shame the Lady's in the office are rude, the principal and vice principal don't even try to help. kid's aren't allowed to sit with other kid's Lunch line's are too long. Lunch is the same thing: grilled cheese or a burrito. A particular teacher is very racist. Ever since they got new principal and vice principal they have been very Rude and very not understanding.

I'm not happy with the teachers at Briggs. This school is not a good place for children that struggle with school. My child struggles and is punished by her teacher instead of helped. Very disappointed.

Excellent school. Great Teachers and Principal. Very active parent group. Overall, I am very pleased with the education my children receive at Briggs. I have one child in High School, and one still at Briggs. I have been here a long time, and I'm so happy with my choice to put my kids in Briggs. Also, I think the office staff is the best and not intimidating at all!!

In comparison to other schools in this area, Briggs is one of the best choices out here. We have a great principal with a successful proven record and makes himself visible to all the kids (which they enjoy). Our PFA is also very active and work so hard to make sure this school has as much as possible for our kids! No School is perfect and that is where we as parents need to stay involved to help make it a more positive experience for our kids.

This school is a bad choice for our kids.Some of the teachers' and staff are mean and way to strict for our kids.The only good person there is Mr. Harrel.He is the nicest principal I've have ever met. He is the only one that listens to our kids. i would recommend of putting your child in Canyon Hills or Ramona. But briggs is a 5 or 6 out of 10.

Good School, Most Teachers are good although some like to intimidate our kids & embarrass them. Which I do not agree with at all. Most of the office staff are very rude & also like to intimidate our children. Not very Professional, Friendly, & they do not make you feel very welcome. The NEW PRINCIPAL MR. HAROLD is AWESOME!!!! Mr. Harold is EXCELLENT with the Kids, he listens to what they have to say, & kids feel comfortable talking with him. Not a lot of field trips, JR. High does not have drill team & very few elective classes. Everything is taught very quickly, I don't feel sufficent time is allowed for kids to grasp what they have learned. I guess this may be common with all schools.

It is hard to beat a school like Briggs where the parents are involved, the teachers are excellent and caring, and the leadership is proactive and forward thinking. Two of our three children have graduated from Briggs and the third is about to finish sixth grade. There is a marked difference of Cchildren from Briggs compared to other students entering high school. They are much better prepared, disciplined, and capable acedemically and socially. We thank God our children were able to attend Briggs

I am very pleased with our choice as having Briggs as our school! No school is perfect and we didn't expect Briggs to be either, but to see our children excel and at the same time like their teachers and enjoy school just reiterates that this is where they belong! The dress code seems to be slacking off while the motto is supposed to be Dress For Success. I wouldn't mind seeing that more enforced. We do wish there were more extracurricular activities at the Junior High level, like clubs, drill team, and even a marching band, but it is nice that we do have choir at the 5th grade level and band for 5th and up, not to mention track for all grades. All in all, we're very pleased with the education our children are receiving and are looking forward to the rest of our kids' Briggs career.

I have two children enrolled at Briggs. This has been a great school for my kids to learn at, the vice-principal has been great. Some of the teachers leave a lot to be desired, but we as parents need to be involved with our children, a lot of the parents at this school are very involved. I am very please with the education my children have received here and would recommend this school to any family that would be understanding of the strict dress code and homework policy. I'm looking forward to many more years of great education for my children.

I have my children go to Briggs Fundamental School, 1st, 6th and an 8th grader. They are challenged with the school curriculum, the teachers and administraiton are well qualified. The older students shows character by supporting the younger students

I as a parent love it here at Briggs, I feel this school is a safe and plesant place for my daught to go to school. I have family members that are students here and I have family that live around the block from Briggs. I would recomend to any parent for them to send their children to Briggs. Its funny when I hear parents talk about how they want their child to go to Briggs, and Im greatful that my child was able to get in here for the start of her school career. I like that the same staff works in the office, and that the same teachers are still here. Because I hear what great teachers they are from other family members, and I always look forward to the start of the school year to see what teacher my daughter got.

I am so Happy with the school we chose for our 2 children. We have been here at Briggs since 1998 my son has just Promoted from 8th and is more than ready to start High School. My daughter will start 6th this Sept. '07. Her 5th grade teacher Mrs. Voznick is awesome. Great with the children and always there to help. I can't wait for my 4 yr. old to start in 2008! The teachers are stern the rules are strict but so is the real world. I have no problem with the dress code. I only wish more parents were for it. School is for learning it's not a 'Fashion Show'. I don't recommend this school for those who do not get involved or have problems with a few strict rules. This school really prepares the children for their High School experience.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
