Kyrene Akimel A-Al Middle School

great school it has good honors qualitiy and the music program is awesome. I would choose Akimel A-al school

THis school is unbeatable! THe moment I steped into Akimel, the whole feeling changes. I'm used to going to school after school but never actually found any that I like, but have no choice but to go. But this school is different I tell you readers! I am currently in 6 grade! Also, just so you readers know, my opinion would never change!

Akimel A-Al Middle School is a great school. The teacher's are very proactive. I think like any school, it depends on the child and their parents. The more the parent is involved, the more you will get out of the education they are providing. The administrations is there to help and willing to assist with issues. I have been very happy for three years. Great pick!

My son has a rigorous schedule, with all advanced classes, and 2 grade levels up in Math. Its a whole lot of homework, and no consideration for extra curricular activity. This concerns me as the social growth and development of children this age is crucial for an emotionally balanced young adult. network to continue through school with. I have requested a meeting with the administer 2 times, and then in person, all 3 times, I have yet to recieve even a return phone call. successful

This school is amazing. My child is currently being bussed from Maricopa and she loves it. Teachers are great and it seems her grades have gone up.

Akimel has some excellent and dedicated teachers. The quality of the academic programs is mediocre because teachers are focusing on discipline, etc. The quality of music, art and sports is very good. There is not enough challenge in the curriculum for gifted students. Many classes have too much note-taking and memorization without anything challenging or creative. The atmosphere is positive and supportive of students.

This school is a school that I can count on to get my daughter what she needs. However, I think they need more activities for the students.

I think the academic program is okay, for the most part. However, I think the weekly 'team building' exercises are a waste of valuable learning time and I would like to see it disbanded, especially in light of declining student test performance in some parameters.
