Tabb Middle School

I love this school. My child went here for 2 1/2 years til we had to move. I miss it so much. When we first arrived in the area they were so helpful with everything and went over everything we would need to know. Even after we moved out of the area they went out of their way to help. The teacher were great. The edline is a great tool for the parents. Very happy with this school and wish we could move back.

Great small town atmosphere school with premiere academics and activities. I love the size of the school which is not too big so kids and staff don't get overwhelmed. The second of my three children is currently attending. He really loves it as did my oldest. The staff and teachers are quick to respond if you need to speak to them and are of the highest caliber. Awesome school!

My son is in 6th grade. He adapted to middle school extremely well and loves his teachers and the after school clubs that are offered to students. Academics are a high priority. The teachers are very caring and make learning exciting and fun. TMS is a beautiful school set in a safe neighborhood with lots of parent involvement.

My daughter attended this school and absolutely LOVED the school as well as her teachers. Quality of the teachers is very high and they really seem to care about the kids. We had to leave York Co. and moved to Fairfax Co., widely considered to be a 'better' district. After a year away, I really don't think it is better, however, my daughter now sees that there was a little too much 'spoonfeeding' at Tabb and not enough 'discovery' style teaching where the kids have to come up with ideas and synthesize the information. She still misses it though!

Great school. The kids are known for their petitions! Mrs. Rhew is a fair principal, but Mr. Layne was more interactive with the students.

Phenomenal school. 2 of my 3 children have attended and I have been very impressed. Academically challenging with an atmosphere of respect at all levels.

My family moved to Yorktown for the 2007 school year. We absolutely love the area and are extremely happy with Tabb Middle School. The principle is fantastic and her staff is so professional. I get updates and information from the staff on a daily basis and am informed about all events through e-mail. Great school, great faculty and the students are pretty impressive as well.

I am a former student of TMS, and I have to say it was a great school. They have the best teachers who are willing to help, and there was always an extracurricular activity fit for everyone. Everyone clamors to get into art and the other music classes, and I was rejected all three times (grades 6-8) because of no available room. The school's extremely safe and parents are always involved with every aspect of the school. However, I agree that the school quality and quality of life in York County has made housing much more costly in that area. The Tabb District has always been a premium.
