This review is based off of when I attended several years back. 6th grade, so it was the '06-'07 year. It seems things have changed, but when I attended, all teachers I had were very helpful and supportive. It is there that I became one of the four students in Math League. The classes were clean, neat and orderly. The peers were just like any other school's. The principal and other staff were very nice. The courses were not under planned. Meaning we learned something new every day. They were taught quite thoroughly and clear. The extra curricular programs were also quite interesting as well. I enjoyed this school. It may not be the same any more, but I will keep my good memories.
campus lacks discipline, most teachers and administration not friendly, staff does not greet parents, teachers do not care about kids, school is dirty
My Child has been picked on the bus and the at physical education! This school is not fair in discipline practices! Like if more then one student gangs up on him it seems that he gets punished and not the others!
Pierce is not such a great school. The only reason my son goes there is because I missed the deadline for choice, but he is soon transferring to a charter school and he & I couldn't be happier. We have had quite a few issues with bullying, & even a physical attack, & I am not happy with the school's response.
I'm a sixth grader and I really like it there. Even though some teachers really don care, the over all experience was like any other school. as long as your kid stays out of the drama, you're clean. ;p.they finally have uniform and way more dicipline. This school is getting better along each step.
i love pierce ! igo there and the teachers r awesome ! the kids are relly sweet,
it a great school with fun friends and graet teachers you need to go
Pierce Middle School is a fun school.Last year,when I was entering 6th Grade,I was really nervous!But soon,I started to calm down because kids were really nice there and they showed me where the classrooms were.Then the fun started!First it was Spirit Week.Spirit Week is suppose to get kids interested in reading,but also a week to have fun.Last year Monday was Sports Day.You dress up or wear colors of your favorite sports team or favorite sport.Tuesday was Hat Day,everyone in my class wore really funny hats that had bells on or the flashing hats,one girl that had really long hair styled her hair to LOOK like a hat!Wednesday was Mixed-Matched Day,you dress up the best you can to look crazy and outrageously mixed matched!Thursday was School Day because FRiday there was no school =(.But it was REALLY FUN!
