I love First Ave. I don't regret choosing to come here. If you ask any eighth grader, they're dying to stay because it's one special middle school. Awesome extra-curricular classes !

This school is awesome! It offers so many extra curricular activities to students! The student leadership is outstanding compared to the other Arcadia schools. The music teacher is excellent and he's very clear. The school is the best!

this school is the best! we have high scores and tons of after school activities (yearbook, basketball, student council, band, rock band, drill and flag team, small team, colorguard, etc). The teachers are always willing to help too! everyone is great!

Good at academic, too much students over 180 on 7 grade. It was very difficulty to make a appointment with teacher.

This school is great. The teachers provide all the care for the students that the students require. The teachers are clever and funny, which keeps them from being dry and dull. However, there seems to be a lack of activities that students can participate in outside of school after it is done. That lack probably amounts for the great amount of traffic that occurs after school is out. What First Avenue needs would probably be some kind of an afterschool program that will supervise students and provide necessary resources for them.
