Los Banos Junior High School is filled with very good staff and teachers, making it a safe and fun learning environment. They have great sport players, coaches, and students to cheer them on at every game. They also offer 3 advanced classes for eighth graders and over 10 different clubs varying from religion, interests, academics, and athletics. Overall, my experience at Los Banos Junior High School has been a great one and has pushed me to strive in my academic excellence.
