The experiences I have encountered at Jefferson Middle School were not very good ones. The three years I attended there were the worst years of my life. The educational system there is poor and there are a lot of social and discipline problems. The staff there care more about behavior issues than education itself. The classes are so easy you can basically sleep through them and still pass. Extracurricular activities are unorganized so if that doesn't tell you anything I don't know what will.

The principal and staff have a hard time with discipline and listening to the students which they say come first. There is also a major bullying problem there.

I think this school is horrible at dealing with bullying and discipline. I am seriously thinking of homeschooling and my son because comes home every day depressed and crying because he hates this school. But jefferson has great teachers and have high test scores thats the one good thing.

Our Grand-daughter has a disability with her eye which causes problems with reading. Because of this, she is falling further behind in all subjects with no assistance or even suggestions from the school administration. The class sizes have grown from 21 per teacher (2003-2004) to the maximum of 35 (2006-2007). In addition to this, the school's completely new administration is unable to give the needed attention to the children who desperately need more individual assistance and it gives the appearance that the no-child-left-behind policy is thrown to the wind. Calls to the Superintendent only get referred to the same new people with no results.
