5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs an 8th grader in Thomas Jefferson Middle School, I can assure you that this is one of the best schools in Edison, New Jersey. To start, the teachers are AMAZING, and they are supportive and helpful towards all students and some are kind enough to offer extra help outside of school hours! Teachers genuinely want to be there, and they transform the place into a great atmosphere for students. When I first came here, I could not write. I did not even know what capitalization was and would capitalize random words in the middle of sentences. However, through the teachers’ guidance, I was able to become way better than how I used to be. Also, the programs offered do not just help students, but transform them to be the best version of themselves. I am in the ACES program, and it has definitely improved my public speaking and helped me be my most authentic self. Also, I am in Band and that program is also well paid for by our school! Overall, this school is awesome for all students.Student Review5mo ago - Washington Elementary School
