Barwise Junior High School

I do not care for this school at all the principal and asst principal is not there for the kids just the paycheck.They are always sending my son to the office in school suspension for someone else mistakes and when he tell the truth he stills gets punished. He gets bullied by the kids he tell on that actually be the ones that start the problems they are very unfair and that Mr.Allen and Mrs Muelberger TALKS TO KIDS VERY HARSHLY AND I THINK THE SCHOOL SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED..There are alot of unfair situations!!

We offer many kinds of activities like theatre, choir, tech lab,guitar,and many others. I really recomend this school to you.

I rate this school lower than most because of it lack in the Mathematics department. My son did well in Math, which did not raise any alarms while at this school, but when he started to attend high school is was evident that the proper training was not there. Despite the efforts we as parents and he has made, his grade seems to be less than average. My son has had to be in math tutorials 4 days a week for most of the year in 9th grade. If your son doesn't play football then he will certainly not be able to play on the first string basketball teams either. These coaches favor anyone in football. My son is among the top basketball players at his school. In 7th grade he played football and was on the 'A' bball team. In the 8th he played 'C' because he didn't play football.
