Not bad, I like most of the teachers. Some of the staff is a little unprofessional but, they can be dealt with. Overall, I think the school is great but, majority of the students that go here don't really want to learn or don't care about their education (like most kids anywhere)...They're too worried about whose dating who and when is the next fight. If my peers really made an effort to learn and actually do their work, i'm more than confident that all these stats would improve drastically. All we need is for the student to be focused on their work and we'll bet better.

I mentioned the incident of the intimidation of the principal to a district employee, and she made notes of it, but I doubt there will be an investigation. Low performing school always have low performing principals. Positive light?There are, like I mentioned, good teachers that I have personally met that have a heart of gold. There are afterschool programs for homework help as well as several activities like the Houston Symphony violin program free to students. There was even an opportunity for catechism classes for kids that want to complete their first communion. The school has some new temporary buildings and the safety looks subpar but overall, I felt students were safe there. The counseling and special ed team is committed to the students and I believe there is some fighting chance in this school with the right involved parent. In conclusion, I am moving my child to another district.

Marshall Middle School is a phenomenal campus, where the administrators, teachers, administrators, and staff work together to develop a positive and productive learning environment. We at Marshall Middle School are privileged to teach a marvelous student body with supportive parents.
