School Overview

Tomas Rivera Middle serves families in Perris, a fast-growing Inland Empire community where working-class roots and new suburban development sit side by side. The school faces some academic challenges, with test scores landing in the lower range compared to other California middle schools, so families who prioritize academics may want to look closely at supplemental support options or enrichment programs outside of school. That said, Val Verde Unified has been investing in its communities, and for families already rooted in Perris, Rivera offers a neighborhood school experience that reflects the close-knit, largely Latino community it calls home.
