Rim of the World Senior High School

The mountain has a drug problem. There are many absentee parents who let their teens do whatever they want. Consequently the school is not good now. It used to be one of the best schools, but the last administration was more concerned about budgets than making sure the kids were busy and interested in education. Parents and School Staff need to work together to clean out the school and make it a fun place to learn. The days of leader-lead instruction are over, we need a more innovative and technological way of teaching our kids. Kindles books, group circles, exploration, games, involvement.

Rim is a great school but it is begining to become run down more and more, if it had more money and/or it would thrive. Because of the lack of students and money classes that are really great for students to have are being cut. This school has extreme potential but just needs more attention and care. Alot of really smart students come from this school. 99% of the staff is helpful and supportive of students and is willing to spend their own time and money for students, if your looking for a good area for children to grow up and learn this area and school is nearly perfect for it. There are many advanced classes for s Parent programs are very active at this school and are easy to get involved in. Compared to alot of schools i have visited within San Bernardino county I consider Rim the best.

Very safe clean school in a great mountain environment. Alot of fun to go there, with teachers who help you become your best.

The new administration has a highly positive outlook and agenda for the coming years. The teaching staff is highly professional and appears to honestly care about the students welfare. The learning environment is rather appealing in as much as multiple learning styles are impleneted simultaneously in order to create a complete education package. Over all, this school is quite nice. A beautiful setting, very little deviance, fresh air to breath and refreshingly goal oriented teachers.

Our basketball team is amazing, volleyball girls rock! And the cross country runners are crazy fast. One of them got second in all of california!

I currently go to Rim. It's probably the best school in the IE. The athletics, 90% of the teachers, and extracurricular activities are really great. The staff in general is caring and fairly accommodating. The only major thing that I'm disappointed with, is the campus itself-it's somewhat clean, but some parts are very run down. Although this year I have noticed a lot of improvements being done. There's a new administration and they seem to keep things running pretty smoothly. So, overall I consider Rim a very good school and I'm proud to be a student there.

The school used to be more focused on the fine arts. There are, however, some great teachers.

I went to this school. It's pretty, it's nice. There are some outstanding teachers. But counselors are not so helpful, and tend to 'give up' on many students. The are missing many extracurricular activities that other schools have, but they have many caring teachers.

The school has no violence and high test scores. The teachers are not sympathetic.

Levels of difficulty rise each year at RIM. Extracurricular activities are so much better in the mountains than in suburban cities, kids have more do to and breath cleaner air. The level of parent involvement is high in this area, you will see packed stands at each football game, and parents are always invited to join in on school activities, field trips, games, etc. I was a RIM student and loved the school.
