North Clayton Middle School

I’m a student at this school. The 5th grade teachers are actually so cool. But… some students here are rather questionable. They curse, and “roast” people for no reason. The gifted program is cool, they give us homework, but not TOOO much. There are a lot of activities for after school! I’ve been here since kindergarten (Covid), and the school is pretty educational.

Overall I have sent 3 children to this school and have nothing but positive things to say. No school board is perfect, but W Clayton seems to do a good job!

We are 1 month into the new school year and so far King Elementary has shown that they lack severe interpersonal skills. The staff barely greets the kids in the morning and they all act like the conversations they’re having with another employee is more important than greeting these babies in the morning or even acknowledging their presence. The teachers lack the same skills and it’s beyond infuriating. Since I can’t express my disappointment physically, I will be sure to let everyone I know to avoid this school and will be withdrawing my kids ASAP.

Terrible school. Our children are the future, and that's very important to remember as parents and teachers we are supposed to work together and hold a certain level of respect. Not here, super disrespectful super lazy, I feel like they care more about their appearance than the children. If they do the bare minimum they feel they deserve praise, the kids are fighting looking at nasty stuff on the computer running away from roaches in the hallway, dealing with bullies and people stealing people bringing weapons and getting them past the front office. Whenever you try to stand up for yourself or your children the staff members tear you down and act like you are the problem and the enemy. I'm not sure what they went to college for but the moment of child gets difficult they want to suspend them and they don't realize it's their toxic environment pushing these kids into the behavior that they're exhibiting I have a fourth grader and a kindergartener and other than a few friends they honestly don't like school so we won't be coming back next year but I just wanted to save any parent that I could the time stress energy and effort that I've wasted at this school. You can definitely find better. If you do happen to be forced to enroll your child in this school be the one to stand up and stick up for what's right and try to make it change because no staff member up their will.

I love the school and everything they do I’ve been there since I was a baby they treated me like I was their own and even my cousins and my new little cousins go there today
