To whom it may concern; I went to Mario C & Joanne Middle School 6th grade thru 8th. In my own experience i can say that the school is a great school and i have referred family members there my self. I have nothing to say but good things about this school. I would like to know if there is any way that i can see school pictures from before. Thank You, Sophia Guerrero

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Nevada used the Criterion Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science and writing. The CRT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Nevada. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
