Ethel Dwyer Middle School

I love it here, especially the teachers and other staffs. But the students here can be disrespectful, mean, and some even say inappropriate things.

Interesting to read other reviews and know our experience has been completely different with this school and principal. My child was placed in inappropriate class 2 years in a row she could not keep up with and my phone calls and emails regarding the matter were not returned and now she faces having to repeat them in high school. 2 quarters last year she received inaccurate grades on her report card from careless teachers looking only to their own retirement and caring not about their "oopsie". Now we can only hope it doesn't affect her placement next year. I think she's actually dumber having attended here. My little girl learned from this school that she's just a girl and she does not matter. Great lessons for the 21st century Dwyer. I couldn't be happier she won't go there next year!

Dwyer was an excellent school. My daughter learned so much and made tons of friends that have lasted through the years. They care about the students, the teachers & the community and we were proud to be Jr. Oilers :)

Dwyer is an excellant Middle School. This starts at the top with an amazing Principal, Don Rusinger. I have seen him reach out and change the direction of children that were at a crossroads in their lives., He is open to all activities that reflects the diversity of the student population. He is a great communicator and a beloved fisture in our community. We love Dwyer.

I really like it here, it's nice and pretty much clean. Activities are fun, and the classes aren't TOO hard. Except for Mrs. Durbin :P but she's nice : D

The principal, Mr. Ruisinger, is the most organized, involved and hoest pricipal I have ever met. Every Sunday night we get a message from him saying what to expect in the coming week. He is upfront about the budget challenges the school faces and handles bullies immediately and thoroughly. I do not have one bad thing to say about this great school. It is meeting it's challenges and exceeding it's goals.

My daughter and my Niece both go to Ethel Dwyer Middle School. this is 6th, 7th and 8th grade. The teachers are wonderful, the principal is very involved with the student and teachers and sends out phone calls at least once a week as well as daily emails to all the parents with updates and activities with the school. Wonderful School!
