Charles Silvestri Junior High School 1055 East Silverado Ranch Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89183

"Currently attending this school in 7th grade and I think this has been one of the best years I've had. I love the people here as they are full of personality and funny jokes. The icing on the cake for this school is the Chromebooks. They are really helpful to me as I am a better typist than writer, don't know how i lived without them."

"Silvestri is a great school. My daughter was very involved with Silvestri, doing poly club, AVID, staying after school sometimes with her teachers. I would prefer my daughter going to Silvestri than the school she is at right now. My daughter knew many of the staff members and got along with them. Some teachers were tough on her, others weren't, i understand why they were tough on her. They wanted to challenge her to see what she is capable of and she passed. Thanks to the teachers and staff members, deans, and counselors my daughter has been working harder than ever. She is now an A and B student. Silvestri may not be recommended to some, but I highly recommend your child going here. They're not as strict about their dress code as students make it seem and the deans and counselors aren't awful. some teachers may be rude, but that's some not all. My daughter will always have a heart for silvestri and will always be a shark. (if you get Mrs. Taylor, you're a lucky one. That's my daughters favorite teacher )"

"This school has an awesome education system, but many of kids there are rude and immature, just as you'd except middle schoolers to be. There are many events for students, such as dances and music in the courtyard every Friday morning. There are great teachers, and there are bad. Some teachers will yell at us because we don't ask for their help, but when we do, they get mad because we don't understand. Some of the teachers are very quick to jump to conclusions and aren't very understanding. But like I said, there are good teachers!! I had some amazing teachers, such as Mrs. Heter (7th grade history), Mrs. Whitworth (6th grade reading but is retired), and Mr. Ewen (6th grade science), and Ms. Altobella (Home Ec. and Student Council). 6th and 7th grade were nothing great for me, but I'm hoping my 8th grade year will be the best! :)"

"I spent the rest of my 8th grade year at this school, and it was a good experience! I should've came here earlier. The electives here are great at this school, and you get a lot of freedom here. The students here for the most part, are openminded, and don't pick on you for your size. I looked forward to going here, and I was right!"

"It's an OK school....I mean some of the teachers are loving and caring and I love being in their classes but others...not so much. They take everything out of proportion. Go off topic, swear in class(although its kinda funny sometimes) its still inappropriate. Bullying is a bug thing, you can't walk through the halls without someone calling you something. And stupid stuff like name calling isn't always something that should be considered "bullying" but apparently it is. I'm only is 7th grade and I know I'm not and adult and supposedly can't make "grown up decisions" but I do think we need to re think our staff. Some of out staff/administrators are really all around confusing and or rude. Some of the hall monitor people we have are incredibly rude, even to people like me who try to always be respectful. You can't say one thing without you getting sent to the Dean's office. Again its not the entire staff but some of it is just...ugh."
