Lake Ridge Middle School

I am very please with LRMS. Tthis was my daughter's first year of middle school and I found Lake Ridge to be challenging, attentive to the children, and enforcing education. They really listen to your concerns as a parent, and are constantly looking for ways to improve to benefit the children.

OHH MY! thats all i can say! LRMS is a amizing school i am a 7th grader and I LOVE IT HERE!! There are some stupid rules like no hugging or contact with other but other then that I love here!! My Favorite teacher is Ms. Hoyle by far! She understand that school needs to be fun and not just a place to learn! Lots of people dont like here but those people are the one who get in truble soo it is their fault they dont like it. AND IF YOU DO GO TO LRMS U OTTA TRY OUT FOR THE LRMS CHEER SQUAD!!!!<3<3<3

The teachers take the time needed to make sure that each and every child has all of the tools that they need to move forward.

I'm in the eighth grade and have gone to LRMS since the sixth grade. It is not my area school but I'm there on the foreign language program. As long as you do not mess with the wrong people you'll have a great time

I have a seventh grader that attends this school. She really enjoys going to this school. Mr. Perkins has been one of the best teachers she has ever had. He also is a great basketball coach. I would recommend this school to any new residents to this area.

Well I cant say this is the best school in the state but, by far the best middle school in woodbridge. We have had a bully promblem but, out teachers petc. are doing the best of there ablitys to make it better. On the orther hand 7th grade math theres is way to much 2 learn in 182 days. I think that is a state promblem.

As a military family, I was very happy to learn that LRMS was top notch. My daughter, currently a seventh grader, is given every chance to achieve her goals. The greater majority of the teachers are supportive and actually excited about teaching these kids. I was very impressed to see such a high caliber teacher in my daughters classrooms. For the one teacher out of 8 that my daughter doesn't like, I'd say she has truly enjoyed learning in most of the classrooms. I was a little dissapointed in the lack of sports clubs offered to the students. For such a large school, they should have much more available than just 2 teams per season.

My second child is at LRMS as a 7th grader and I have two more to go. I am seriously considering private school. Bullying runs rampant in this school and the administration response is lacking at best. Truly disappointing school. Teachers are pretty good. It's just in need of new and better leadership, people who know what they are doing and want to do more than listen to themselves talk.

In my option Lake Ridge Middle School, is one of the best schools in this area. My son is a 6th grade student there. I was very nervous about him going to middle school, but the teachers, assistant principals, and guidance departments have helped him settle in very well. Also, he has been having trouble in math and they have been providing support for him since the beginning of the year. We moved here about three years ago and I'm so glad my husband checked into the schools the way he did. I am more than happy with the choice we made.
