wonderful school with great academic program. Helps students prepare for high school and college with a strong academic curriculum.
—Submitted by a parent


Posted August 23, 2007

this school is not a very good school. The teachers do not know how to teach lessons and are very lazy. The principal talks to long on the intercom. Also, the school smells. I think that the teachers shouldnt hand out as much homework because if they dont teach the lesson correctly. At this school you will find no drama club, and only basketball and field hockey as sports.

Glassboro Intermediate is a good school, but they need more after school activities for children who dont like musical instruments or creative arts. The teachers are also too laid back. They hand out work and don't teach the lessons correctly.

The academics are o.k. There arent enough sports for the students though the only have basketball and field hockey. The parent involvement is nice, too.
