4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child is very happy attending Lincoln Middle School. I sometimes worry that the classes might be too easy for him, but he really loves his teachers and is very excited by the opportunity to participate in so many clubs. It seems like the new principal at Lincoln Middle School is making changes to improve test scores and make sure that students have a positive experience. One of the best perks is that the LMS students are permitted to perform in the fall play and spring musical put on by the high school. Such a great opportunity for the younger students! So far, we have had a positive experience.Parent Review9mo ago - Dunellen High School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy family has had a very positive experience Dunellen High School. My oldest has taken several AP classes and earned a good score on his AP tests, so I feel that he is well prepared for college. The teachers go out of their way to support the kids and make sure they have what they need. I am particularly impressed by the arts program here. The band teacher and choir teacher are phenomenal. They push the kids to learn really challenging pieces, and they provide an incredibly supportive environment. Because it's such a small school, there isn't the same variety of classes as you would find in a larger district. On the plus side, the smaller class sizes provide a better learning environment.Parent Review9mo ago - John P. Faber Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy family really loved Faber School. My kids were challenged appropriately in their classrooms and they had lots of opportunities to do hands-on learning activities that got them excited about school. Both the teachers and the administrators are very caring and they do a lot to make sure that students have a positive experience. There are a lot of fun traditions and celebrations (cultural heritage festival, color runs, etc.) at the school that create a welcoming atmosphere for everybody in the community.Parent Review9mo ago
