Northeast Middle School

Im a student that goes to nems and i think its a pretty good school but all schools have there faults. yes, there is some bullying but all schools have it and there isnt as much anymore as there was. I really like going here and i like almost all of my teachers. most of the students are very nice and if you are considering to go here, i think u should.

Principals are not helpfull, they dont bother to return email inquires. Have advised District office and things have still not improved. Would not recommend this school, to anyone for their kid to attend.

I am a parent of a Nems's student. If you belong to a different culture, then this school is not for you. Too much bullying. This school's administration is very poor. Very stressful environment. The leadership is quite lacking. No safety and no discipline. I would never recommend this school to anyone.

Im a student at nems and the transition into middle school was really smooth. we had an oreintation, the teachers from nems came to elementary schools. the elementary teachers told us what it was really like so there were no suprises, and there were none. all the teachers really care how to do and want you to succeed. it it's hard for you, every single one would go out of their way to make it easier. ive learned so much and i love my teachers. i feel really safe there and it feels like home. im not just saying this. if you are moving to parkway district, i hope this is the first school you consider.

I am a student here and I think that some of the teachers are unfair torwards some of there students. Some teachers have favorites so that tends to lead to problems. Other than That I love this school The extracurricular activities are great especially the choir Mr.Brown is awesome!

I have a student in the special school district that attends NEM and we couln't be happier. We transitioned smoothly in part because the staff, starting with the principal down to the nurse have been very involved, accepting, and dedicated to our son's education.

This school has real problems. It is overcrowded, and that leads to big problems. The administrators are horrible, and very ineffective. Discipline is a big problem, and not at all well handled. They do not at all provide good feedback to parents. This school is going downhill fast!

I think this school is wonderful. I am a student there and theres nothing better then a opinion from someone whos always there. theres just something about the teachers at this school and they make you feel like your home. Parkway Northeast middle is a very outstanding school with outstanding teachers and outstanding acheivements. This is by far the best school that I have ever been to.

Northeast isn't all it's cracked up to be. Having attended other schools and then transferring to Northeast, I found the work to be so far behind. The population, in terms of numbers is diverse, but the number of minority students in advanced classes isn't proportionate. I was not at all happy with the Language Arts or Social Studies classes (I spent an enormous amount of time simply coloring and answering elemenatry questions).

Please disregard the negative things that has been previously stated about Northeast Middle School. I attended Ross Elementary and Northeast Middle, and now attending North High School, and I would have to say most of the pleasent experiences I have had in my schooling was at Northeast Middle. Children have attachments to teachers, there is lots of diversity, and the whole faculty strives each and every student to succeed. So, if you are looking at the Parkway School District, I strongly encourage you to consider this school. Instead of taking the side of a parent, listen to a student who attended Northeast for three years and knows first-hand what this school is like. Thank You.

Parkway Northeast Middle School has wonderful administrators who work closely with teachers to provide the best learning environment for its 1100 students. The team approach works well with a student body of this size breaking down the grade into groups of 75-100 students, and teachers are able to get to know their students. Discipline is a challenge as it is with all middle school students but the staff has worked over the past year to address these issues. I love the diversity of the student population. The music program (orchestra, band and choir) is fantastic.

Having children go from elementary school, through middle school and into high school, Northeast is most definitely the worst of the 3. There are too many principals who can't control the student body, ineffective teaching skills and absolutely no discipline. If you plan on moving to the Parkway School District, stay clear of this school.
