Program Information The mission of the Spreckels Union School District is to be the premier district in Monterey County by providing all students an innovative education in a traditional, small-town environment. We feel that Buena Vista Middle School’s unique size, staff and parent dedication, and quality of students allow us to achieve our mission.
Buena Vista Middle School (BVMS) is a high-performing middle school located just off River Road in the Las Palmas subdivision. Opened in 1998, it is the only middle school in the Spreckels Union School District. The school’s current enrollment is approximately 360 students.
The entire staff at Buena Vista is committed to providing its students with a challenging and engaging curriculum that allows them to excel in their future endeavors. All core classes are aligned to the Common Core State Standards.
Middle school is a time of exploration, so Buena Vista students are encouraged to take part in a variety of learning experiences and extracurricular activities, including band, foreign language, sports, technology, visual and performing arts, and various other after-school and lunchtime clubs.
The Buena Vista staff works in partnership with our parents and community to ensure our graduates are prepared for high school and life in general. We are proud of the fact that many local high school valedictorians are former Bobcats.
