My kids don't go here but I live on the same street as the school. The staff here is terrible. I…read morehear them out on the field all the time screaming at the kids and the kids ain't no better. The kids are always yelling out profanity and I never hear the staff taking control of that. I ride BMX bikes out in front of my house and the kids will insult me and make fun of me and staff does nothing. Sometimes when they leave the gates open during the day I will take my kids to the school to play on the field and staff always kicks me out. They have even kicked my son and I out for riding our bikes in the parking lot. Total power trip on the staff side. They don't want any kids to enjoy the facilities at thier expense. A place that is built for kids but no kids allowed. Makes a lot of sense.

Really unfortunate that my child has to go here. Not only are the kids out of control but the staff…read moreis also. The front desk ladies are rude and scoff every time I call about my child being bullied. I talk to the dean and principal and nothing gets done. The teachers bully my daughter too and nothing gets done. I've had to resort to calling the superintendent to try to get things solved. The staff at this school are immature and do nothing. One of the teachers Ms Lange won't let my daughter go to the bathroom, get water and threw a pencil at my daughter, which hit her and when I called and told the school nothing was done about it. The front desk ladies laugh at me when I call. They have cameras in the rooms but they're only turned on "in case of emergencies" the cameras should be on all the time so the behavior of the teachers can be caught but of course the school doesn't want that. Save your breath and just call the superintendent, Don Huckabee when you have a problem here. His number is 775 463 6800

I love the school is small and that all the teachers care for all the students and most of the students care for their school and their community. This school has hosted the Special Olympics in the past. And the students take part in aiding the Olympians and running the event.

Quite a few kids showed up it was really nice. We drove one hour and 40 minutes to get here and it was well worth it. Really don't know much about the school, only that it was small, but I think there's only like 4000 people that live in yerington lol. I do know that we really enjoyed the wrestling coach. He is very helpful and put the clinic on today for free. We will happily return for the next clinic.

So far I have liked all the teachers (Thompson, Gianotti, Benecke, Tremayne, and N. Smith). They communicate well via E-mail and phone.

The movie admission is free and snacks are available for purchase. The school nurse and cafeteria staff are well educated in the area of food allergies, which I appreciate.

I came across SVA (Squaw Valley Acady) while researching for a boarding High School for my nephew…read morein China. I also spent a day there. Students use lap tops during class with wifi access. A lot of emphases is placed on learning with a laptop. . (All wifi are turned off at 11pm at night.). Considering all standardize tests in the US are computerized (MCAT, LSAT) and most work environments in the US use electronic records exclusively, lap top in classroom is a good idea. Students come from all over the world with the goal of attending a college in the US. SVA has transformed itself in the past few years to focus on college prep for international students. Class sizes are small, usually less than 10 students per teacher. I noticed the students get alone with each other rather well. This is observed during lunch time. I see students from different countries sit next to each other. Dorm rooms are 1-4 students per room. Most of the ones I saw have 3 students in them. There is a microwave on each hall, fridge and safe in each room. Overall the rooms are larger than the one I used to live at UC Berkeley 20 years ago. (unit 1 Cheney) and much larger then the tiny rooms at Univ of Tennessee. Washers and dryers are free for students to use. At night, dorm exits have security alarms, hallways are video monitored SVA pride itself at offering a balance between academic and personal development. They encourage students to take advantage of it's location to learn many physical activities Tahoe has to offer - hiking, soccer, golfing, cycling, ski / snowboard. I think this makes SVA different from other college prep school. I have the opportunity to spoke to students there. Due to the many Saturday field trips student take, expect another $4000 or so in additional expenses. While the students like them, parents may be surprised at the bill.
