this school is a terrible school for kids to go to, there is bulling, and bad social-emotional support, if you have any extra money, send your kid to a privet school, or homeschool them, Blatchley middle school is not safe for your child

I am pleased with the school. We come from a different country and my son was having issues at his old school. So I thought the language would make it even harder for him, but it was the other way around. The great teachers here helped him and accepted him and he has never been happier. He is learning very fast and it's all because of the attention and dedication this school's staff is putting in every one of their students. I'm sad he will have to go to a different school in 2nd grade. But I will always be thankful!!
