As a student i think that JAMS is an awesome school. I mean this both learning wise and activity wise. I am currently and 8th grader here. I graduate as the class of 2009!!!! We have great teachers and students. Most if not all the teachers are really good at their job and you learn alot i mean it trust me. JAMS has a great Music program the best in the entire SMMUSD. They have an awesome Science Magnet Program. If you are in science Magnet then you take field trips to Yosemite in 7th and to Astro Camp in 8th, which os located in Idylwild, CA. Bottom line is this school is great and you and your child will love it!!!!!!

John adams is a great school. Even though they are pretty strict they have a lot of fun activities like yosemite, I myself went and had an incredible time and it was beauitful. I actually had horrible math grades in Elementary school and amazed to say that i actually have WAY better gardes in this school. This is my last year at JAMS and Im going to miss it. I would recommend this school to any parent.

This School is great for all grades. My kids couldn't wait to get their own lockers and they did in 6th, 7th and 8th grade they go their own locker. And for the kids that love to play Basketball JAMS is also great for that because JAMS Basketball team has won the championship 3 times in a row the last three years. And it is also great for African American students who want to learn and have fun. And teacher will always email you if something is wrong. And you can always check your children s on the website. But best of all the Teacher care about your children s they treat them like they are their own. So if you are a parents looking for a Middle School John Adams is right for you!

I've been a parent at John Adams for the last six years and have been very impressed with the work of the school leadership and staff. I found John Adams (JAMS) to be a solid, diverse middle school with some exceptional programs. The science magnet program is rigorous and hands-on. The Spanish Immersion program is a jewel with very talented and dedicated teachers. And the music program is better than most high schools could hope for. Teachers and administrators also make consistent and creative attempts to close achievement gaps and put all children on the road toward college. As in any school, there is variety in the staff, but overall the faculty is strong and the school leadership is committed to growth and excellence. There were lots of people at JAMS who went the extra mile for my children and who will be long be remembered.
