This school is real good with kids. The teachers, including Mrs.Thrift, Mrs.Keesling, Mrs. Rodriguez, and more really care about the kids. Mrs. Thorne, the music teacher is one of the best band teachers in the world. Teachers are willing to go in the morning to help kids with homework. The only problem is that there are many kids in a class. But overall the school is great. I really incourage you to enroll your kids in the 2010 - 2011

The previous review is clearly from someone who has not not researched thoroughly. A recent talk with SPHS teachers indicated that Isbell students are more knowledgeable than students from other surrounding middle schools, overall. This was particularly true in math and science. Isbell's new principal, George Alessi, has turned the school in the right direction. Students are very well behaved as evidenced by a national CHAMPS trainers comments after a recent visit. Work production is closely monitored by teachers and the expectation is that ALL work will be completed to a high quality. I am very happy with my child attending Isbell. Teachers are competent and caring and have good interpersonal relationships with the students. The school is a happy place where high quality learning takes place. Parents need to support their community school and ensure they are part of the solution and not part of the problem.
