My husband I have pulled our daughter out of the school do to the lack of fairness in disapline from one child to the next for the same offenses. Some of the teachers care and try to get the students really into the class work. Others act like they are there for a paycheck. Think twice and stay aware of what is happening at your kids school.

Beverlye is the best middle school around. Teachers are supportive of the students, and Principal Larry Norris is doing great things. They have an Algebra 1 course, Robotics Engineering course, Bridge to Algebra course, Exploratory courses that include Microsoft Word, and a typing course. Beverlye is doing great things for our children's minds and confidence. They have a great coaching staff for football. This year the became 2007 City Champions, and were undefeated. Parents! Beverlye is where you want your kids to be if you want them to experience this hands on education. Beverlye is the only school in Dothan that has the boys separate from the girls, and the only Middle School offering Algebra 1 for High School credit. And they are adding new curriculum to better our kids at all times. Great job Beverlye! And great job Principal Norris and Teaching Staff. Keep up the GREAT work. 5 *****'s
