I am going to this school, and i just moved here and i am a girl, Jefferson is a good place but even though it might be rated very good, its an okay school. There is barely any homework even in the AG classes and if you are in band or orchestra, you probably might be very far ahead because they start an instrument only in 6th grade, which is pretty far behind. Not many people are in orchestra though. Also if you have never heard of Wallabees, you might want to look at them because to fit with more "popular" kids in you have to have a bunch of Wallabees, Uggs, and other expensive shoes. Also Wallabees are quite ugly, and in Jefferson they actually think they look good.... which is pretty weird... but thats just my opinion. Finding friends is kind of hard when there is more than 400 kids in the whole grade. Eh... well the teachers are pretty good, and the kids are not disciplined very well, and the classrooms are very packed full of kids because they have so many.
Jefferson Middle School is awesome! My son started sixth grade at Jefferson this year and has had a wonderful experience so far. The teachers care about the students and help them to be successful in school offering tutoring after school. The principal is great and he keeps parents well informed concerning school events as well as keeping track of A/B day schedule.
my son will soon start middle school and I have chosen this school for my son to attend. My son is zone for another midddle school, bit I have chosen this school instead. I have done researchs and find this school to be the best school.
The teacher there care alot about the students and keep parents up to date on everything. They always bend over backwards to see that the children get everything they need to get ahead.....saturday schooling , after school schooling.

Excellent school, a little too much testing and homework in the AG classes. Quality work by the teachers, excellent staff and SRO. Glad my daughter is there.
6th grade at TJMS is the BEST!!! We have some of the highest test scores in NC. I am proud to work here.
There is not much homework. Kids are not disciplined well. Also, there is not much technology use at all. It is far from the best middle school in the county if you ask me.
Jefferson middle is a very good school, with high expectations for their students in academics. I gave a four star to this school. Thanks to all the helpful and caring teachers!
As a parent this school is wonderful my son had and grate time there with the hight test scors and by far the best athleatica they win about 9 out of 10 county champs every year. Best school ever
