Ralph Cadwallader Middle School 7775 West Elkhorn Road, Las Vegas, NV 89131

"This is a great school in Clark County. The staff seem to have things under control, and pretty efficiently at that. Teaching staff is underpaid and overworked, but there are some teachers who enthuse their students every year and teach far more than just their class topics in the process. Mr. Kellermann in Band comes to mind right away, but there are quite a few others as well. Public schools are not dead. They may be challenged, but this school is one that delivers, and I am glad that my kids get to go there."

"This school is horrible! The science department sets your kids up to fail! They have no desire to teach your kids or help them learn.The teachers there are too busy on their phones rather than teach your kids. And when you try to talk to the staff they do nothing to help the situation! I am so fed up with this school .I'm taking my kids out! I need my kids to get a real education! Not be bullied by teachers!They have no desire to work with the parents or students....My son went into choir and they do nothing but watch movies, proof of that is their 2 concerts were horrible! I was in choir in school and we had a blast .This school and teacher put no effort or time into the performance! I was so disappointed that my son wasn't getting the great experience I had..I guess these teachers have given up! Who ever is hiring needs to realize this and hire teachers who actually want to teach and care about our children because they are our future! But with this kind of teaching all our kids will achieve is fast food employment may be! So sad! Believe me parents choose another school and avoid the headache !This school does not care about your children!Or their education!"

"I went to this school in 6th grade. I'm sorry for any kid who has gone to this school or is attending now. I'm sorry for any kid who has been lied to by staff and bullied by a teacher, like I have. I'm also sorry for any kids who have been bullied by others students, without a teacher caring to help. The staff has disrespected my parents and I. This school did not allow me to be creative. Other students as well as teachers taught me to hate myself. Thanks. Hire new teachers and staff. Hire people who actually care. This school will be in my memories as a nightmare."

"I'm a former student of cadwallder and I've got to say it's wonderful . Teachers here are very nice and understanding but most people have issues with staff. The staff are not worried about the fights that go on after school , in school etc there more worried about people hugging or kissing . I don't agree with this cuase middle school is supposed to be the time to branch out and Mabye find a bf or gf . Many people get hurt and people get away for doing such an action"

"As a parent, I was furious to receive a phone call 3 days before school starts saying school lunches will not be available! It’s bad enough school “policy” is to wait till the last minute by having a small 3 hour window in the morning only one day the week before school starts to pick up schedules and agendas. Another phone call said to check the CCSD website to verify school bus transportation. That website has been down for the last three days- along with the Cadwallader website! Last year my son started at Cadwallader. We received zero information from the school leading up to the start. Not one letter! Not one phone call! Nor did they return any of the 15 messages I left! I felt completely left in the dark! However, once classes started my son did very well- good grades, etc. The complete lack of communication last year and the never ending last minute changes or very small window to pickup schedules have frustrated me beyond belief! I am so fed up with their inability to communicate with parents which is why I’m posting this online. Parents beware! You will be completely left in the dark and will not know if your child will have a bus ride to school or will have to rush at the last minute to purchase food for lunch!"
