This is my daughter's first year at MMS and she hasn't had many problems at all. She has been doing really good and I believe this stems from our dedication at home and the teachers that really care at school. There aren't many teachers or other authorities that really care about our children. I believe

This is not a safe place to send your children to school. The bulling is out of hand and I had to take my son out of there! The teachers just sit by and watch bad kids tear the good ones down. Please someone do something!

This was my daughter's first year at Morrow Middle, and sadly enough her last! This past year was horrible. Unless you demand respect from certain kids, then chances are you're not going to get it.

Morrow Middle School is a good school with an excellent teaching staff. However, the administration at this school is very weak. Teachers can not teach classes to the best of their ability because they have to deal with discipline problems that administration do not handle. There is no support for the
... Read more teachers by the administration and at several times administrators side with the students and pick and chose which students they want to discipline. Also this such lacks an PTA as well as parental involvement. Also I have failed to understand have several students can fail all of the academic classes and play sports. It does not make any sense to me. In order for Morrow Middle School to become a Great School the entire adminstration needs to be changed. Read less

I have a son at here and must admit that it was not as bad as I thought it would be. There are some teachers that are not at all interested in the students. We must remember it starts at home. PARENTS start being parents and stop trying to be FRIEINDS with your children. One of my main concern is the

I give praise to Ms. Cooper and the others who have stuck it out for the long haul and continued to stay at the school while others have bailed out to Henry county. Read less

The administration is excellent, but the teachers are not professional. This school has a bad discipline problem. My child gets picked on everyday, and she tells the teacher, and nothing is done about it. This school needs help in this department.

I am not impressed with this school. It is not a safe environment because the students run the school. If a parent does not agree with a punishment for their child, they simply call the school, and it will be reversed. That is not fair to anyone involved, especially the student in the long run. As

This school has come a long way since i have been associated with it. Parent involvement and committment is the worst problem they are trying to overcome. They are not perfect, but they try to work with parents and students. Father of 2 boys.
