The principal at this school and the teachers in general are more interested in punishing the kids than teaching the kids. Most of the teachers are just phoning it in every day. Many students and parents complain of bullying that the school refuses to address. Our daughter was the subject of bullying for almost a year, and the principal refused to acknowledge it. Our daughter told her teachers, the counselor, and us multiple times. The principal refuses to acknowledge that it even goes on. Talking to anyone at this school is like talking to a brick wall, their stick in the mud attitude is not helpful to students or parents.

Hi, I am a student at fms I love going to school I wake up I wanna go to school on school break I wish I was at school because I love seeing my teachers and friends but it is really hard most of the time u Can get judged very easy just because of how u look or how u dress and there are awesome people at the school its good when I know that if I need help I can go to Mrs. Fluker and talk to her about it or I can ALLWAYS have fun learning math with Trent but what I do not like about the school is that they don't look into a thing when i get serious in my upion but there was a student that had said I did something that I didn't add they put me in is for I long while I will admit I can do some not right things some times but what the kid said was not true and I got in a lot of trouble for it when I should not have and it's not just once or twice that this happens It happens pretty often bad things happen pretty often to the point my parents might have to home school so they don't have to deal with this so if you are wondering if you should put your kid in fms in my perspective you should notlearning is fun with the right people and environment- 8/10 fitting in can be hard with the right people but even those people can be pushy- 5/10 admin stopping problems if you report it-5/10 having fun at school-6 1/2-10 being supported by teachers/admin- 8/10 being supported by the students- 4/10being safe-7/10 all because it wouldn't be great sometimes but it can also be really bad especially when you're doing good and they bring up bad things you've done or judge you because you don't have the best grades 2/5 stars

I am a current student at this school. The school handles educations very well. The math department is amazing, and so is the English department. The Science department is mediocre but the math more than makes up for it. I would say that the number of Advanced classes JF offers is really good. The school handles bullying well, and allows for students who really do want to learn to move into advanced classes with likeminded students. Overall, I would very much recommend JF.
