I love this school I was in it for 2 years but then i moved i love it so much its a grate schoo.

I think that its a great school but I also think the discipline is out of control - kids get detention for using the bathroom without a pass, the lunch atmosphere is stifling - lunch monitors write students up for disciplinary action for talking to their friends. Other than that I love this school. Too bad I have to move.

I attended Indian River middle school my 7th grade year. I had just moved from Alabama to New York and was not looking forward to going to a new school. I must say I wouldn't have traded my experience there for the world. It was the grandest school I have ever been in. We got a wide varity of classes to choose from, the days were not long and we even got to go swimming for P.E. The teachers acctually wanted to help you learn and make sure your time with them was useful. If you had the slightest problem with a student it would be taken care of quickly and fairly. I loved all of my teachers and had some of my best friends at that school. I only wish there was such a school down here in Alabama. God Bless.

Two of my three children attended IRMS. I found the school to be one of the best that my kids have attended. The teachers and the district have gone out of their way to give the students a fantastic learning environment. We moved back to the area from Germany, and it was our goal to return to this school district. The schools offer many extracurricular activities and a safe school. Every school has room for improvement, but out of the numerous schools that my children have attended, this one has been the best. (they have attended primary through high school during our two tours of duty at Ft. Drum). It's an excellent school district.

All of my children attended IRMS. The discipline is out of control - kids get detention for using the bathroom without a pass, the lunch atmosphere is stifling - lunch monitors write students up for disciplinary action for talking to their friends. The art program is wonderful and physical education is also well done. Several teachers are excellent - Mrs. Young, Mrs. Dean, Mrs. Blanchard, Mr. Sauer, and Mr. Inserra. Mr. Moore is a superb counseler. These people are the gems in a school life with favoritism and poor leadership.
