This school and MPUSD as a whole is a disappointment. They have many great teachers and staff but…read morethey are overwhelmed with disrespectful students . The schools are dilapidated and programs are severely lacking. Numbers don't lie. Test scores are abysmal and the district isn't willing to change their approach. Walter Colton isn't safe. Lots of racist comments and fights. The " difficult " students are allowed to act however they want and the district sweeps it under the rug. If you have any exceptions or standards with academics , cleanliness or behavior avoid this District as a whole. MPUSD is only interested in saying they are a diverse school and getting extra Title one money from the state. I grew up in this district and can't believe how far they have fallen.

My…read morekids have learned so much and I am still in awe that they switch seamlessly from English to Spanish in their lives (and we don't speak Spanish at home so it's all from what they learn daily in school). They feel safe, cared for and happy about school (I mean my middle schooler probably wouldn't say she's exactly happy to go to school, but she does love it because she had great friends and good teachers). They love to go to the after school activities! I'd recommend this school to anyone interested in giving their kids access to dual immersion!
