I am very pleased what the new staff at HMS has done. It is about time they have a principal and staff who help keep our kids in line. Kids today need to learn discipline and respect. HMS is doing a good job of that.

The school is better than is was when I was in 6th and 7th, mostly thanks Mr.Mcarty and Co. I'm taking honors Algebra one this year.

My son has been in pittman middle school for 2 years now (6th and 7th grade). The elective and honors classes are good. My son has been in math honors and science honors for the past 2 years.

I am glad that pittman (it really all begins in hueytown elementary, a wonderful school) offers these classes. But the main prop that i have to give to pms is to the new principal and vice principal this 04/05 year. They are strict but it is needed for middle schools. I commend mr. Mccarty (principal) and his staff for the education & disipline at pms. Good job! Read less

One or both of us parents attend SB meets, band concerts, and other special events and try to help where/when we can. While PMS is not the best it could be, it is adequate. The administration appears to be striving to be better, which is great. Read less

I think this school is okay. One problem they are to hard, Pittman is not a bad school, but they are to hard and children complain about getting in trouble to much because I had a daughter who was on the A honer roll and was getting Dentetions every morning.

Pittman always has been a wonderful school. We have tried for many years to have more parental involvement but were unsuccessful. For some reason a few more parents have become wiser and realized that 'it takes a village.' Pittman has always had caring, professional teachers, they just were not recognized
