rio vista was an alright school i kind of enjoyed it over their but it had its ups and downs like somedays there would be fights and everybody would run at them like some show but there are some really great teachers overall i rate it a 6/10


Posted May 4, 2010

I curretly go to this school and I'm in 8th grade it's a good school.. We are undefeated in a lot of sports. There are certain teachers that don't teach good but the rest are good Mr. Lamb is a good science teacher. There can be fights some days and all the kids run to it which is funny.

From A Student Point of view, I went here, and It was the worst school I have ever been to. Not to mention the LACK of Discipline.

Excellent learning environment for your child. Exceptional staff beginning with the Administrators and including but not limited to Teachers, Office Staff, Nurse, Special Ed. Staff, Food Service Workers and Janitor. A vast amount of extracurricular activities available for your child. Very confident-building atmosphere, especially given the challenges this age group (Jr. High or Middle School)faces. This school is the cream of the crop. I would reccommend this school without any reservations.

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.
