MMS is the rare case of a great middle school that balances an enthusiastic, caring environment with high academic standards. The teacher s and counselors have been carefully selected: they truly love teaching kids of this age, and it shows. They are smart, encouraging, and get the most from their students, who are well prepared for honors/AP level classes in high school. BTW, the music and art programs are extraordinary as well. A rare gem.

MMS is a great school!I graduated from there last year,and overall....it's just great!All of teachers care about their students and make sure they get good grades and have the highest confidence in themselves to take with them out of middle school and in to high school and so on.MMS really helped me from when I first entered in 7th grade.I dont think I was ever as sad to see something end.If I could rewind the heads of time and start at the first day of 7th grade again,I would.GO MMS!!!!!!!!

We are new to the town and district, an untraditional family with a 7th grade son. We have no real complaints about the middle school, the staff set high standards, there are also high expected levels of behavior. The guidance staff has been WONDERFUL and our child seems happy.

Maplewood Middle does about as good a job with middle school years as any school I've seen. The principal is dedicated as well as the staff.

This was a disapointment to my family. There is a wonderful music program but not a great education. The test grades are okay. The teachers need to make learning fun because when the students come from elementry to middle school their grades drop!
