Bluff City Middle School

This school is one of the worst I have encountered. They do nothing to stop bullying. Their academic program is horrible. The teachers lack any care for the majority of the students attending. The principal is awful and does not try to reach resolutions for his school or students and is told what to do by teachers. What is good???

HORRIBLE school all the way around. The principal lacks leadership skills and ability. The teachers have their chosen few of favorites. The academic programs are severly lacking.

I want to know what school some of these people are talking about? The BCMS that my son attended was the worst school I have every seen. The teachers did not care, they beat the students out of the door at the end of the day. Most are just there to collect a pay check. The 3 years that my son attended BCMS was a nightmare. This schools does nothing to curb bullying. My son was told on 2 occasions when he reported bullying to himself and another student that no tattling. That was because the one doing the bullying was a teachers child. I would not recommend this school to anyone.

this school is wonderful our F.C.A. program has grown to 90 kids. and our volleyball was the best ever this year. our track is just now starting but i have a good feeling that it is going to be good. our school needs some funner classes if you ask me. every year we do the same thing in our related art classes. but other than that our school is perfect

My son has attended BCMS for the past three years. He will be moving on to EHS in the fall and we feel that his years at BCMS have prepared him for the next step in his academic career. As someone who has made a career of working with children, I feel that the staff do well with the children in their care. I do wish the student/teacher ratios were lower, but even with such high ratios, my son has been given the attention and instruction he has needed. If more parents would take the time to focus on the job of raising respectable, honest, hard-working students, I feel that the rating for this school would be much higher. Teachers can only work with what they are given. Thank you BCMS staff! We really appreciate the work that you put forth everyday!

This school is poor. We do not have anything we had last year. The dress code is way too strict.

I give the school very poor marks. The principle lets the teachers rule. If you go to him with a problem, he says he will take care of it, but he is just moving his lips. Rules are for some but not for all. They want the students to dress like a grandmother. They are rude to the kids saying such things to my granddaughter , such as, Kids are to be seen and not heard. The children are not treated with any respect. The academic program is poor and the sports program is for their pets.
