Dryden Middle School

I use to think Dryden Schools were great but not so much anymore. When they have to make budget cuts they are cutting the wrong things. Also if the children are in sports, they do not get much playing time in the games unless they are the coaches kids or a teachers kid, that is totally unfair to all other children that are on the team. They should also be taught that the sports competitions are only for fun and the coaches should teach them that winning isn't everything but their schooling is very important and needed. All rules should apply to everyone not just handful. Most of the teachers are pretty decent in Dryden if they would stop changing their subjects, classrooms, or grade level on them and be a little more consistent with the overall curriculum. Some of the teachers that do not know how handle kids shouldn't be there.

I grew up in the district and now have 3 kids here. There was a time that the school system had the best in mind for its students. However, over the years many things have changed. Due to high taxes, budget cuts, program cuts, the students have started to suffer. The educational performances of the district are some of the lowest in the area. While there is a special ed program, there are no gifted or advanced programs for students.
