HORRIBLE!!! The teachers are unprofessional and argumentative!! I cannot believe some of them are even educated. The principal is all over the place. And the curriculum is very poor. My daughter attended this school for 2 years. After 2 years enough was enough. I felt she was barely being taught and the teachers talk to the kids crazy. I purposely spent a bunch of money to move out of the district and I am glad at my decision. My child doesn’t have any issues at the new school. And the curriculum is better. If you are new to the area and care about your students education I’d suggest looking into a private school or charter school. Trust me!

This schools is THE WORST middle school to send your kids to.Recently someone close to me has faced bullying at this school and has been suspended many times for defending himself. Another thing is that staff target certain students and hand out punishments for trivial things. The students at this school are HIGHLY disrespectful and curse and call eachother racial slurs ALL day. It’s gotten so bad to the point kids can feel very uncomfortable and unsafe around other kids to the point of walking out of classrooms because of the arguments amongst students which instead of punishment for the 2 arguing they can get suspended just for leaving an uncomfortable space. Also the students are very rude and kids commonly go home crying or reporting bullies only for nothing to get done about it. Also the school caters more to Hispanic and other lighter skinned people which is VERY apparent from the amount of young black girls being dress coded for wearing nearly identical outfits to those of European origins. Another that makes wells middle A VERY uncomfortable poorly educated school is the dress coding of YOUNG minors especially when it comes to the black students and when the staffing is majorly non black it’s even more obvious. Also non black students DO NOT get in trouble for saying racial slurs (n word) out loud whereas black students can face punishment and even suspensions if they say anything to defend themselves. Lastly this school is TERRIBLE at communicating and doesn’t return calls, talk to parents and some of the more uneducated staff even avoid talking to parents by pretending to be on calls when people report they are actually sitting in a lunch room doing nothing.( from an actual situation where a staff kept saying they were in a meeting and then students came and said they were in the lunchroom doing nothing) which is absolutely ridiculous.

I went to school here from 1998-2002. It was a good school. Alot has changed since then, mostly the influx of disadvantaged and low income families to the area, which is a tough challenge. Katrina brought alot of the new students to the area where many have come from difficult circumstances. I wish the school all the best, there are certainly many areas to work on.
