Middlesboro Middle School

i am very impressed with the school as a whole very caring of the students

This school does not want to deal with parents, so they make it to where parents cannot get involved. They schedule parent teacher conferences in the hours of you work you cannot attend. They also only give notice a few days in advance so requesting time off work in order to attend is impossible. If you do get to attend you speak to the teacher for a total of 5minutes before you are forced out. Policies are constantly changing and of course parents are never made aware of the changes.

I have children that attend St. Julian. St. Julian teachers and staff are highly qualified and go above and beyond to ensure my children are succeeding. The teachers go the extra mile and make accommodations whenever it is needed for my children. Communication between myself and the teachers is outstanding. Their curriculum is challenging and is accredited. The religious education is not overwhelming for students who are not Catholic and they teach a very basic Christian value system that is universal to all Christians. I do not feel their religious education is being 'pushed' down my children's throats and I appreciate this. The physical building is a bit older, but I do not mind b/c they are receiving such an excellent education!
