I'm a current eighth grader finishing my third year here at erms, and I think it's a pretty good school. It's really competitive, and the majority of people are at least taking algebra 1 by eighth grade. There's a lot of nice elective classes like language classes, robotics, FACS, etc, and everyone takes electives.Like all schools it has some "bad kids" and some problems with vaping and such but nothing out of the ordinary. There is some bullying but not too much, the only thing I've noticed is that the school is really diverse but people mostly are friends with people of their own race and it gets cliquish. However, It's not that hard to make friends here everyone has at least a few friends here because there are so many people, so if you're moving here don't be worried. The teachers are good, but I find that the hated, strict, teachers are the ones that actually teach us and the beloved chill ones are the ones who's classes I actually have to teach myself the material in. One thing is that we have a ton of tests here, which gets very tiresome, but we don't have that much homework. In some classes we have tests basically every other week and the teachers just say they're preparing us for high school.Overall I would recommend this school but it's not the best school ever so don't move here just for erms.

this school is difficult now eversince they updated the standards this year.

Just attended G Parents day with Grade 3 kids. Wonderful and full of joy lively kids learning in Ms Salamon class. Seems like other classrooms and staff are so nice. Deserve more than 5 stars. Also saw youger kids in dinning hall for lunch. Never seen so happy kids being together and enjoying meals in one place.
