This is a great Middle School under great leadership, all staff are caring individuals that work together to help students to achieve their highest academic potential. I can certainly state ,that my children attended 7 years in this school ,and these years were the most happy of their school years. They had great opportunities to thrive in the areas of academic,art, music, technology, and social activies, but yes, I do agree, not in foreign languages. This is a great well balanced school, My last child graduated this year, and this school will own our most treasured good memories
My daughter started as a kinder gartener this year . She is doing great . She hasn't complained about anything . Her Teachers are great . They are very supportive and approachable .I am happy that she is going there .
Forthe most part the middle school teachers have advanced degrees, especially in science and math. They do have limited foreign language teachers, thus limits the number of children that can be enrolled. Parent participation is very competitive, but keeps the adminstration and staff on the ball. Music program has declined over the years. Overall the teachers are dedicated professionals who are enthusatic to teach.
Considering the quality of education in CA compared to the schools back East where we're from, I'd say Travis is doing a fairly good job with the students. My son is an average student and the course-work there is extremely accelerated, as dictated by the CA School Board, which, accordingly to most teachers I've spoken with, hasn't a clue what reality is. But Travis has a wonderful middle-school guidance counselor and teachers who do care enough to help students out when they need it (i.s., staying after class and helping before school). The students at the school are very homogenous, which has its good and bad points - if you want your child to meet children from different walks of life, it won't happen at Travis. Overall I'd say for a school in the state of CA, it's as good as you'll find.
