Jehue... not so good. the ladies up in the office just gossip all day and the administrator(s) don't seem to be concerned about students safety... all the staff should scrutinize their actions!

I go to Jehue Middle School. I think it is a great school. Yes it may get kind of strict sometimes but what school isn t? Its school they are not there to babysit us.So its our faults why we get in trouble. Other besides that this school is awesome. Mr.Jensen and Mr.Edmondson rocks!

The principle and administrator don't appear to be concern about the safety of the students and do not see to it that certain things around the school site are safe for the student.

My son goes to this school and I personally think it is horrible. It is way to strict, they will give you a detention for any little thing. Do not enroll your child in this school! That school is one of the reasons i'm moving.

My granddaughter is in the 7th grade at Jehue. She enjoys the classes and teachers and she has been on the honor roll for the past two years. We are proud of her. She is learning much because we get to see it first hand. The staff is very much on top of safety, and does not tolerate too many problems, and we like that. The curriculum seems to be good. I appreciate the administrators and the teachers.
