My son attends there and he seems too like Mr. Anderson but Ive never been able to talk to him myself when I have called there for some reason or other. We parents need to take control of some of the things that go on there and get more envolved before our kids are again just part of the system. The board of education and this new superintendent needs too take a close look at whats going on there and take action. Read less

Our family relocated here in Richmond from South Florida, with great expectations. We love the area however, have been so dissapointed in Madison Middle to the point, that if we could't get our child out for the next school term we were going to home school. Our child was bullied on and off the whole
... Read more year for the first time in his life, his grades began to plummet. Our child went from an A student to bringing home an occasional D and F. We received no concern from the school staff at all. I find it very concerning that a teacher can see a childs behavior, demeanor ,and grades so drasticly and never contact a parent. Needless to say, our child will not attend Madison Middle next year, we have made other arrangments. Thanks, God Bless Read less

I am very happy with Madison Middle. My oldest daughter had a good experience there and my younger daughter is in 6th grade there at this time. Our new Principal, Mr. Winkler, has already had breakfast with parents of each grade level and has discussed the school in length with us and asked for our input.

The teachers are exceptional and supportive and always have time for parents and can be reached by many different means. I have already been on a field trip and helped after school for athletic events and have seen first hand the care, warmth and concern all staff has for our children. I believe your reviews are outdated. Parents working with and supporting teachers- working with students- together - make the difference. Read less

I am very concerned about the leadership of this school. It appears there are several 'groups' of teachers who have very different ideas about education and the teaching of our children. I often question who is running this school! Admin. or teachers? It appears that the teachers are dissatisfied and

My suggestions to new parents of MMS would be: 1.Never throw away a paper that has been graded (teachers seem to have a hard time keeping up with assign. and homework). 2.Don't be afraid to talk to Ms. Fritz-she is super! Our many thanks to her and the few who are dedicated and truly care about our kids. We have had great feedback about the new principal and have high hopes for a new, positive environment for MMS.

* In 2007-2008 Kentucky used the Kentucky Core Content Tests (KCCT) to assess students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 through 12 in several subjects. The Elementary School results displayed on GreatSchools profiles are for grades 3 through 5 combined for each subject. Middle School results are for grades 6 though 8 combined, and High School results are for grades 10 though 12 combined. The results reflect the performance of students enrolled for at least 100 days before testing. The KCCT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Kentucky. KCCT academic indices range between 0 and 140, with 100 as the statewide goal for all students.
