I know of 3 teachers that go to this school that have a tendency toward public humiliation of their students. The sister school Mehfoud is a stark contrast to this school. Mehfoud's teachers and staff are very loving.

The new principal, Darin A. Thompson, Ed.S., is setting staff up for failure with unrealistic goals and only offering empty platitudes rather than actual support and resources to help them achieve these unrealistic goals of his.

I was a bit wary of sending my child to JRMS because all I'd known about the school was its less than stellar reputation due to baseless rumors. Since my child's 6th grade year, I have been more than satisfied. I'm happy he's in a safe environment. I'm thrilled his teachers and the school administrators are knowledgeable, competent, and caring. I'm impressed with parental involvement and the teamwork of the administration, which together have developed so many talented JRMS students. I must add that the counseling staff goes above and beyond the call of duty. My inquiries and concerns are always addressed promptly by the director of this gifted team. My son is now in the 8th grade. He is thriving and receiving a solid and quality education. I know that my son will be prepared going into his high school years and for that I am very grateful to the wonderful faculty, staff, and administrators of John Rolfe Middle School.

This school is absolutely wonderful! The principal is very hands on and involved with all of the students. Reading is a priority and stressed at every level. I would highly recommend this school.
