agreed! TEACHER bullying forced my son out of the school and i was then bullied myself with threats of resource officer interviews. the principle is ridiculous, the vice principle a joke. these people do not know how to fairly advocate for our children and their rights against bullies, teachers or otherwise! I encourage all parents of 6-12th graders to investigate the wonderful alternative they have at their fingertips called Redmond Proficiency Academy. These jerks never even told me a thing about them, preferring me to instead just remove my kid from their school, saving them the trouble of having to actually give a care.

My son is a 7th grader and is struggling but I do not believe it is the schools fault. We moved into this district this year and Isaac s need to be more organized has been highlighted as a result of being in a tougher environment. He is challenged and that is a good thing. Also, when he wanted to play basketball and failed to make the varsity or jv squad, he was still able to play intramurals. He hopes to make jv next year. Good for Elton Gregory!

Even though I consider this school to have exceptional academic teachers, the cutbacks to curriculum in recent years has greatly depreciated the entire program. Understandably, the recent population explosion within a short period of time creates many hardships for school staff to provide quality education to students. However, my concern (after personally observing throughout the 2004-2005 school year)is that these highly qualified teachers and staff are spending way too much time monitoring hallways and 'policing' the kids.

i believe that this school is not a very good school. It need a lot of help. There are no after school programs and the sports are not doing too well. My son goes to this school. The kids there are failing to look cool and the ones who do well get caught up in popularity and end up failing with the others after their first taste.

My daughter made Honor Society her first year in Middle School. I feel the school and her teachers as well as the programs helped her achieve all of her goals and will continue to do so.

About the tests


In 2009-2010 Oregon used the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (OAKS) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math; in grades 4, 7 and 10 in writing; and in grades 5, 8 and 10 in science. The OAKS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Oregon. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
