I can toatlly see why they havn't been regognized in a few years. The teacher s are completely oblivious to all of the problems that students have and they do almost nothing if they do find out. Eighth grade was a huge jump from seventh. It was like they threw us to the sharks. There is so much to keep

I am not impressed at all with this school. Our family came from an excellent school district in the Woodlands, TX and I am sorry we left. My kids were not able to continue with their current classes - it was like taking a step back. Foreign Language is not offered in the 7th grade. It also appears
... Read more that students are rewarded for their academic performance on the TAKS test. In the Woodlands, my son was offered to take the DUKE University ACT test early due his high TAKS scores in Math. I asked about it here and no one knew what I was talking about. I also have not heard of a school not having enough school books for each student. My child cannot take a science book home b/c it has to stay in the classroom. Read less

My child was physically assaulted leaving marks on her arm by a boy that was much larger than her. We left it up to the school to have the campus officer make a report. Big mistake. Teachers do not have the back up from the administration when they do send discipline problems to the office. They

Also, the lack of fine arts in the schools is pathetic. Thankfully Weatherford has many generous citizens that ensure the art programs the children have for now are offered. *frown* Read less

This is a horrible school. The students basically didn't learn anything. The teachers also wouldn't do anything about their students' horrible behavior. It's a teacher's job to get his or her students to behave in class and I think that TMS's teachers weren't doing their jobs. I would definitely
