Conway Middle School

I am a student at Conway and I love it there . I think it is awesome in every single way . The teachers are so nice on the leopard team , and the students are so nice and socialble I want to go here for 8th grade as well . But what I dont like is that the lunch period is too short and that they give us silent lunch to much . But overall the school is easy to navigate through , the teachers are nice and the students are really great a socialble. I love Conway Middle School !

This school continues to get worse and worse. Conway Middle Principal refused to let my sign my child out of school during the last hour of school and we missed a very important event. My daughter was held in school against my repeated request to sign her out.

Conway Middle School is an excellent school in my preferences. The teachers and staff work together excellently and the teachers are always willing to help whenever they can. Students are generally good, they have a regular middle school attitude. However, I think the teachers are letting the kids grow up to fast and not taking as much responsibilty for them as they should. Overall, CMS is wonderful.

I am in 6th grade and I love it at conway the teachers are so nice the food is great but it is overcrowded due to construction and the bad thing about the school is that the lunch periods are to short

Before moving from Kissimmee to Orlando a year ago, I spoke with people at my new job location who recommended the Conway area. My daughter attended two months of seventh grade and her entire eighth grade at CMS. She made 4 best friends whose parents share my 'old fashioned' ideals. She struggled in math and her teacher offered tutoring every morning. My daughter told me that because CMS was an 'A' school, she wanted to 'do better'. She put forth more effort this past year than she ever did during her school years in Kissimmee. The quality of education at CMS is excellent. The teachers are committed and caring. Teachers encourage e-mail from parents and students so it was easy to stay informed. The move from Kissimmee to Orlando was the best decision I ever made and it's because my child attended CMS.

Conway has a dedicated staff of teachers, administrators and staff. The principal is fantastic. She is accessible, understanding and consistent. The level of parent involvement is less than I would have expected at this school. The academic programs vary -- there are some enrichment programs but overall the quality is compromised by the students. The student population is drawn from the numerous apartment complexes that line Conway Road and many students are transfers from out-of-state -- primarily NY and NJ. While there are some wonderful programs available, the teachers spend a lot of time on disciplining and maintaining order. There is also a gang problem in the neighborhood and in the school.

I can't say enough about cms, my daughter went there as well for 3 years and excelled wonderfully, she did how ever get into a littel trouble at first but the adjustment was easy after that. She left cms making a/b honor roll and i could not be more proud of her or be more thankful for the dedicated staff and teachers. Any child that attends conway will get the best of everything he or she will ever need from a middle school.. Again thanks to all of you for helping my daughter enter her adulthood with the knowledge she will need to succeed in high school.
