I am a previous student and I learned so much. The teachers are really caring and strict, but if they weren't strict students wouldn't get things done. They do their best making learning fun. Overall they have so much to offer students, I recommend A.S.B, Art, and S.T.E.M. It's truly an experience you can't get at any other school.

The teachers at Del Dios Middle School are very engaging and fun and all the students love to come back and say hello once in a while like me. Their efforts to approach the students and offering assistance never disappoints and they are always trying to make us laugh. They also are constantly trying to get all students involved with the STEM or VAPA programs offered by the school and in doing so make learning all the more interesting. They're manner of explaining a complicated lesson is often broken down into simpler steps to help the students understand and fully comprehend their teaching. All the students love talking to their teachers as friends after class making stronger bonds between the teachers and the kids.
