Rising Sun Middle School has the most Awesome Administrators, Teachers and All Staff around. They love their children and help each and every student get the best education. They have a way of working with every parent and child to get the most out of each child instead of teaching each child in the same way and losing children in the system. They personalize each childs corriculum according to how the child is able to absorb the information. They are a top of the line, world class school. I would like to thank them from the bottom of my heart for their kindness and professionalism.
I disagree with the first review for my school. I am a student at RSMS and believe it is a VERY FUN place. My social studies teacher Mr. Bower always gets the class involved in what we're doing by watching videos, reading books, and always having a good sence of humor. Ms. Parkhurst, my reading teacher, always has a wonderful sence of humor as well and always gets the class involved using her Smart Board to play fun games. My math teacher, Mrs. Sappia teaches me pre-algebra. I'm in 6th grade so that is a very hard subject, but Mrs. Sappia makes it fun using white board activities, watching real-life videos where people use math, and using her wonderful humor. I hope that this review was very helpful, and that anyone who doubted RSMS, rest assure that this school is a wonderful one to go to.
I believe the problem at this school starts at the top. The teachers and administration at this school are NOT receptive to parents, do not take the time to get to know the kids they teach and are always in the 'defensive' mode. I have 2 children who attend. One is an above average student and one was an average student. This school seems ready to 'ream' either of them at the drop of a pin and both are good kids. However, if you point out what the teacher may be missing or may have done inappropriately, you are flatly dismissed. The coursework is pushed at an un-Godly pace and the 'special' courses are taught like you are in a communist country! Where is the FUN in school anymore? Certainly not going to find it at RSMS. No student support for extracurricular activities, either!
