We were so fortunate that we found Burckhalter. Our two daughters have been going there since Kindergarten. The school community feels welcoming, caring and kind. They have one of the highest retention rates of staff in OUSD. The principal is a great leader. There is an active parent engagement including a monthly coffee and community, math and literacy nights and many more. We absolutely love the school and the community.

Frick Middle School was once the school that every Parent wanted their child to be at, Since Mr. Criddle has left the school it has really went down, down, down. That's really sad, because I feel that the students of today are not learning anything, most of them are in school only half day and some cannot come to the school at all only for testing. Mr. Criddle once had his staff on point as well as the students and the parents, it was a family school now it just feels like a building with people in it, I think that the school district such model Frick after Mr. Criddle, meet with him to find out what worked for the students, parents, staff and administration of the school so that the children can return to receiving a better education.

I've taught at a number of schools, and I think Madison has a lot of strengths that is not accurately reflected in the GreatSchools score. Madison has a full service school that provides afterschool programs, counselors for restorative justice, family outreach, and health services. The culture of the school is something visitors always talk about. Students feel safe here, and teachers continuously engage in professional development to push the quality of their instruction.

This school is plagued with multiple substitutes and a revolving door of principals. I pulled my child out!

Teachers sometimes grade you by behavior making your grade go down by a lot. They give too much homework not allowing students to have a life out of school. In conclusion this school is depressing.

I liked this school because i had good grades and i liked how that school worked hard for me too graduate.
