I wanted to offer a note here to give some facts about the middle school. I see a few people have put up notes who seem very angry for some reason. I don't question that the school was not good for their family. I just thought it'd be helpful to post some facts for any prospective families. 1. This is a small school. Everyone knows everyone. Teachers will know your kids by first name and will know their likes/dislikes. 2. They have an edugarden where the kids learn science by running a garden with bunnies and chickens. They plant, evaluate dirt composition, etc. 3. Volunteers are encouraged. 4. They teach in an integrated manner- reading and language arts is taught through social studies. 5. Classes are small. 18- 24. 6. Kids can get PE, Spanish, art, music, environmental science, etc. as electives. 7. They do have after school clubs, before and after care, etc. 8. My child came home and talked about split atoms for about 20 minutes. And he is smart but not one to do that unless he was excited about learning. I can't imagine how they made that exciting but they did!

Now the Administration is having e-mails erased! Obviously there is something to hide or these e-mails wouldn't have been erased!!!

My daughter went here for one year and she was better off not even attending school! She didn't learn anything! The school is awful and the instructors are useless. They show movies during class and don't even have textbooks they can take home. As a parent, sending my daughter here was a decision I really regret.

There are still many people who love this school. They are not the people who move their kids to a different school from year to year looking for perfection. Most people that are happy don't come here to give a review. Usually sites like these are the disgruntled people who've been kicked out or have a bone to pick with administration. As a parent you need to be involved in your children's education. Communicate with their teachers and or principal. This is our 6th year at this school and we are still very happy. We are realistic in our expectations and we are active in our children's education. This is the real world people! Teach your children how to deal now or they will be in for a rude awakening soon enough!

Our six-grader Daughter, enjoys the freedom of choice. We allow her to pick and choose as she makes good choices, she has demonstrated responsibility in her decisions. Making (Pizza) & Tomatoes) are Vegetables came from USDA. Freedom of Choice.

No. I prepare my son's lunch just about every day due to his special needs so I know what he is consuming both for him and his class. I want to be aware of all ingredients in all foods/drinks which he is consuming.

If it is to keep allergic kids safe, then no. A strict rule of no peanuts or pb&j should be enough. My child's school had a peanut free table for double insurance. If for "nutritional" reasons, then NO! Since when is pizza a veggie????... More »
