Eisenhower made an A on the State rating scale. This was done by the leadership of Mrs. Collins and her staff. Most of the credit goes to our students!

My son is starting his second year at Eisenhower MS and we couldn't be happier. Sure, there have been a few very minor issues but nothing major. Let's be reasonable, no school is perfect. It's obvious the Principal and AP's really love their jobs and really care about the education they are providing.

I have four children, three have unfortunately attended Eisenhower Middle School. I say unfortunately because each one of my three kids that have attended Eisenhower, had terrible experiences. They all were doing great in elementary and loved school. Then they went there and they took a nose dive. The

I refused to let him continue to get bullied. The teachers and staff do nothing about it. I cannot tell you how many times i have tried to get help from the staff. My son that is going there now, he has missed two days already from being so sick to his stomach, fearful of having to go back. No child should have to go through such torture. Read less

I do wish the office staff was a bit more professional, and would quit letting student volunteers do their job.

I am impressed with the effort put forth. Read less

I was very disappointed with the quality of education (or lack thereof). My children went there for one year and they will not be returning.

I'm a former student from Eisenhower who went to this school the past 3 years. In my 6th and 7th grade years there were a few fights, but in my 8th grade year, there were almost no fights.

Everyone went to different elementary schools and each taught different ways, and over the summer, most of us forgot what we learned throughout elementary school. As far as extracurricular activities go, this school has a wide selection of them. There's chorus, band, orchestra, technology, P.E., Computers, Crime Watch, Journalism, after school sports, and a lot more. If you're looking for a school to send your kid to, send them to this one.

The FCAT has 5 achievement levels, with level 1 being the lowest and level 5 the highest. Florida considers scores of level 3 and higher to be on or above grade level. The goal is for all students to score at or above level 3.
