Read what parents are saying about John Barrett Middle School

I would steer clear of this school for both parents and teachers considering teaching here. The administration is poor, ineffective, incompetent, and discriminatory. Do your research. Go elsewhere.

Posted by a parent on 6/11/2026

Principal is unprofessional and disrespectful to students and staff. As well as other teachers and staff. Student success should be at the forefront but it seems like anything that gets brought up around medical needs and progress gets pushed

Posted by a parent on 2/5/2026

Although the education is good here, many people are bullied and made fun of for being LGBTQ+ or a person of color
