10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a Brent Elementary alumni whom is very very very fond of the school environment. The teachers are nice and helpful. They really care and wanted me to succeed. I became best friends with one of the teachers the first of kindergarten. To this day we are still besties for the resties. It is super easy to make friends I still have many close friends from when I was at Brent. The teachers very active in and out of the classroom. One of my favorite memory’s was when my teacher would play kick ball with us. Just know that sending your child to this amazing school is a great decision.Other Review2y ago - Jefferson Middle School Academy

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was gonna save my reviews until my child graduated from the school however he is now in a transfer because of the school the new principal along with the principles and administrative staff deflect on behavior issues that disrupt the learning process with the class this school has become a decline of neatness from being a generational student myself we have gone from making parents accountable for their children's behavior to allowing students to do what they want to do when they want to do it without allowing Physical consequence For the actions thanks such as home suspensions parent-teacher and administrative conferences and all of those things. A lot of the teachers are Really really great lesson providers and they do their best to keep the learning process going however the administrative staff do not back them up and all the principal cares about is her LGBTQ and all the other letters where she's enforcing that behavior process yet alone that The issues were volving around the financial stability of the school they are no longer parent community oriented and and the administrative staff only deals with issues that scratch their back or make them feel superior not accountable. It was a hard decision to let my child go from that school however the school that they attend now is a much better school and it's so crazy because Jefferson used to be one of the top DCP S junior high schools I don't know if it was because they converted to a middle school whatever it is if you know that your child excels in the learning process do not send your child here unless it is an ultimate decision where you had to make a serious sacrifice because I guarantee you They will not learn much if the teacher has to be the counselor the parent the teacher and the provider all Within a 45 minute period of 20 to 25 plus students. I am extremely disappointed of the new curriculum way that they handle things I am extremely disappointed of the new curriculum way that they handle things. And it's so crazy because a lot of their staff has already left I can count how many times my child has had to go without a subject teacher With the school year So until they fix the behavior disciplinary process this school will go down in rocksOther Review1y ago
