I attented Miller Grove Middle School in grade 6. It was my first and final year. The teachers were terrible, the school was infested with ANTS, and the administrative team was lazy. I will not be attending this school ever again.
It is the best school that a child can go to.
I am very disappointed with the counseling staff and teachers at Middle Grove Middle School. I have been trying to get my som tested for a learning disability since the beginning of the school year. Needless to say, he has not been tested and school is almost out. In additon, homework is not given daily which is bad for my child. If homework is not given daily, how can the child reinforce what is being taught by the teacher. My child will not attend this school next year. This is his first and final year at this school
I was displeased with my child's expeience there. My child took advanced classes and the 3/5 of her teachers were lazy and did not challenge the students. The principal and other adminstrators are passive and come off as nonchalant. Needless to stay,my child is no longer there.
The school is very old but the teachers try to teach them something even though some children don't care
i attended miller grove 7th and 8th grade year. i am now in the 11th grade. i remeber the school being well organized and discipline. when i was giong there it was only about 3 teachers who showed signs of hostily. the teachers helped you with your work with your work and overall the school was great. everybody knew everybody. we took trips to the holocaust museum to learn more about it. but like i expressed while i was at miller grove the school was excellent. teachers constantly reached out to the students also for problems within themselves and those are the knid of teachers we need at all schools. the kind of principals and teachers who doesnt care about the money but furthuring the children education.
i hate it i hate it i hate it. The school is a old that needs to be rebuild and the bathrooms are messed up. the children are disrepectful to the teachers
I totally disagree with the school's policy of not providing homework nightly for the children. The work cannot be reinforced if homework is not given. I don't like my child having to go to Saturday school to do what should be done through the week! However, Saturday school is necessary because the work needs to be reinforced. I just believe if it was given nightly it would accomplish much more than the Saturday school. Thanks!
This is my daughter's first year there. I can say that I am happy with the school the teacher I must say are very Informative. They alway keep a open end. Even though my daughter is not doing her best the teachers and school is not at fault. I am a Parent that dont pass the buck and I know my child sometime play or talk too much. As far as I know her teacher and the school is the best I give Miller Grover 10 thumbs up Go Miller Grove...... :o)
my child has been a student at miller grove for 3 years and I have not been impressed. some of the stuff that my child turns in and makes an 'A' on, I would not accept myself!! The band is a joke. you pay your money for an instrument and uniforms and the teacher does not make it a requirement for them to participate in concerts,etc. My son is an 'A' student, but is not pushed or motivated to excel. This school is no longer a magnet school and I can see why. My home has not sold in 2 yrs, but we are getting out of Dekalb regardless.
