Algonquin Middle School

Racism is real. I had two chosen experience it at this school. Utterly disgusting.

It’s been a very negative experience from the office staff and principle telling my child they don’t care what he has to say to the social worker trying to talk us out of an IEP for 30 minutes saying it’s a disservice and how my child wouldn’t graduate like the average student. To my young nest somehow getting out of the school 3 times to them threatening to call the police because we refused for them to call a crisis unit due to their lack of supervision. They constantly get suspended or sent home when they don’t want to deal with them. The principle kept encouraging me to pull my son because he wasn’t ready for school and how it wasn’t legally required until he was 6. It truly has been a very negative and traumatic experience for my whole family. Both of my children have medically diagnosed issues & they did not care or take those into account.

I absolutely hated this place the way teachers were horrible they always yelled at me and they clearly didn't know how to handle children and there were so many safety violations

This school is absolutely horrible.. do not let your kids go here. Between the knives on the bus and the sexual assaults…. By 3rd graders… I’ve had absolutely enough. I can’t move away fast enough. If a half a star was an option I would give them that.

We absolutely love this school we had choice of where we wanted to send our daughter and what this school has done for her and our family has been amazing . Our daughter struggles with ADHD we are able to get a plan of action in kindergarten To help teach her how to cope with it at school and her 1st grade year has been phenomenal. I don't think my daughter would have made as much progress as she did if it was not for her for Mrs. Kania, Mrs Cottrell, Mrs Khatri. Mrs Lipari, Mrs Beth, Mrs Jones and Mrs Michelle Our daughter has scored above average in her testing The beauty of this school is they realize academics is not the only parthe only part behavioral and social is a huge part of a child's success in school.

I went here in the 2000s. Worst experience of my life. I was punished for things that didn’t require punishment, or at least not to that extent. Some of the teachers were okay, but the school admin was more concerned about controlling us than teaching us. I hated this place so much.
