I am a teacher at Mauger and I have to say I am very proud to work with the teachers there. Parents don't always get to see what goes on behind the scenes. You will never meet more teachers that care so much about their students. We all go above and beyond. Purchasing student supplies with our own

Being not only an educator but being THERE because there are so many parents in our district that simply are not. Mauger teachers care, maybe it's time the parents stepped up and started being a team with the teachers instead of fighting us every step of the way. We want to raise the bar, not bring it down so they have a false sense of achievement. Don't you want that for your child? We DO Care! Read less

I am a student and throughout my experience I find that in many circumstances that the faculty or school officials are very discrimative. My brother has always been denied a.p classes even with perfect scores. I also find that some teachers choose favorites and lower standerds for those favorites. I've

I attended Mauger as a child, at that time it was 6th - 8th. My oldest just graduated 8th and my youngest is due to start 4th there in the fall. We are currently looking to move, due to this school. There are a few good teachers, but a few too many bad ones. The school is grossly under staffed and over

The Middlesex Board fo Ed had better wake up soon! The children are out of control and the curriculum is horrendous. They are more worried about now to not pay to help the children rather than pay for them and make them sucessful, independant children with high self esteem - and as educators isn't

It's a shame that as parents we have to request teachers at every grade since we all know who the ones are that will not help and won't be there to boost the children up. In each grade we have teachers who care, but there aren't enough of them and thanks to tenure they stay. We also don't do enough to keep the non-resident kids out of the system. It's time to wake up folks! Read less

I think that the school district in general needs to pay attention to their children's educational needs. It took me nearly four years and the hiring of an attorney to get my children tested for learning problems and it was only after I became really aggressive that my children received the help and

I believe this was due to the fact that they did not want to spend money and all I have to say is that is a miserable excuse for allowing any child to fail or become so frustrated they quit. Finally both of my children are classified (they are twins) and are doing much better in school. The team teaching they are provided is a better level of education and I can see they are finally moving ahead. The teachers the girls have are wonderful and are doing a magnificent. It was a tough fight. Read less

I will be graduating from this school monday night and I dont like this school now more then ever! The board does not take care of this school! It is hotter inside then outside, this could be a medical problem! I would say that Mr. Coowen is the first good thing done by the school! He is the nicest

I also think that gym is the worst subject. The girls have to play 'softball' on the soccer field, and when the boys need a new ball they make the girls play kickball! We have many girls who play sports and I find this sexist, rude, and unfair! Read less

I will be graduating from this school I have honestly have to say that I hate this school. There are a few students which make me feel unsafe, and others are very rude.

Many girls are talented athlets and none of this is fair! I also think that the extracurricular activities are limited.

The teachers are excellent. They care about the children and work with them to succeed. The female principal is awful. She has no vision for the school, cannot comunicate effectively to parents, teachers or children. She does not solve problems, but creates them. THe teachers hold this school together!
