Greenfield Middle School

Very poor quality teaching of the most important basics and they try to cover this up with loads of 'enrichments' that they let anyone teach. We need to get into a good college. There is an attitude of 'good enough for greenfield'. We need excellence.

As a teacher at Greenfield Middle School, I am proud of the work we do here. The students and adults in the building are all working to continuously improve our school and comunity. We have committed to a social contract and we uphold by communicating with each other. We have a variety of programs and enrichment classes which we offer to all students through the Extended Learning Time (ELT) Grant Program. Students participate in activities which include Band, Sports, and GMS-TV. There is also an excellent Afterschool program offered through the HEC 21st Century Afterschool Program and students have more opportunities to learn through exploration.

Like any school, you get out of it what you put into it. My kids have done private and public, and the results are that private is more demanding that you be an independent learner, and self motivated. But you can get a good education here as well, just the teachers have to conduct themselves so that they follow public school rules which is a restriction on how they assign work and create study habits. Obviously, private can kick disruptive kids out where Greenfield Middle School cannot and are forced to give more time and attention to the troubled child than the one with a learning disability. What we have learned is that school needs the time and attention we gave our private school, and the outcome is the same, but if you don't have time to be involved in public schools, go to private.
