8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school changed a lot in recent years. I know that the pandemic affected many schools. I heard that after schools reopened this school lost almost 40% of their student body. Before the pandemic there were a lot of community activities (after school classes, Friday events that included parents, and musical performances). Those have all stopped during the past few years (2021-2023). I understand it is hard to ramp those things back up. More concerning to me is that my child’s classroom this past year seemed pretty out of control. She would tell me stories about kids who were acting out, cursing out the principal and things like that. Again, I realize that some of these might be global problems due to schools closing and causing developmental problems for kids. But overall, it seems like a different school than it was 5 years ago.Parent Review2y ago - Central Middle School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school just disappointed me in many ways. The way that they are teaching my kid in school is very off to me. My kid isn't paying attention for a reason—a reason that the school doesn't want to hear at all! My kid doesn't feel safe in that school. The two-sided ladies who worked in the office were completely rude. The energy in there is so negative. I wouldn't recommend any children to go to this dirty school, the strict rules won't change anything after all. It is the same old boring school. DO BETTER!Other Review1y ago
