i think sutter is an over-all pretty preparing and good school. the environment the teachers provide for us and the atmosphere we build is close to a family. i think everyone leaves sutter wishing they had just one more year with these people we've grown so close with. even though people think they hate middle school, sutter students love it.

Sutter was good prep for high school, and i had a good time with friends. Honestly, the best middle school in Sacramento. Teachers were really nice, and most of them actually taught me something.

The school is subpar at best. There are rats and cockroaches (and other disgusting bugs) within the locker room.
