Teachers are really nice! Willing to help students no matter what. Caring community!

I would rate Thomas Jefferson Middle School 5 stars because it is a really good school. The teachers genuinely care about students and work to help you understand the material instead of just rushing through it. If you're having difficulty, most teachers will take the time to assist you, which makes a big difference. There are also many activities to get involved in, such as sports, music, and other options, so it’s not just about classes all day. This makes school more enjoyable and helps you connect with others. The school feels safe, and the staff maintain order, so you don't have to worry as much throughout the day. Even though the building is somewhat old, it is still a great place to learn and has a lot of history. Overall, it is a solid school with good teachers, a decent environment, and plenty of opportunities, which is why I believe it deserves 5 stars.

I love Prescott! When my younger daughter graduated to middle school last year I was sad I wouldn't be a "Prescott Parent" anymore! The staff and faculty have always done their best to make sure every student has the best possible education, no matter where they fall on the curve and what their needs may be. Discipline issues are handled quickly and appropriately. Curriculum is creative, engaging, and most importantly, effective.
