Armstrong Middle School

I went to this school my entire life. Thought it was safe to send my own kids there. I was wrong. The school is now run by staff that are all alumni. They form clicks and treat kids and parents horribly. They show major favoritism. Its disgusting. They make sure their kids all get the best of the best. Theres also two teachers that have had reports made about them putting their hands on kids and they still work there. They do not care. That's just the staff. The school is full of bullying and they do absolutely nothing about it. Do not take it seriously what so ever. My child ended up hospitalized and the kid who put them there still walks the halls. All last year it was a constant trouble getting my kids to go to school. They'd cry because they were afraid and didn't want to go. Talked to said principal and it was like talking to a wall. If i didn't have to send my kids there, I wouldn't.

I 1000% do NOT recommend this school district. 1 of my sons had constant behavior issues and wanted to blame the child, it wasn't until after we moved and went to another school that I found out how little paperwork they do for each child's portfolio and the carelessness of handling situations. I received calls every day about my son's behavior, and he received a suspension without any paperwork involved. Teachers sending children to a "reflection room", a white room type closet, WITHOUT informing the parent. Teachers acted like they cared, but the principal and teachers changed multiple times in the 3 years my children attended, not forming the lasting bonds/relationships needed for children to thrive. My son still sometimes has behavior problems in the new school, but it's very clear that he was treated like a nuisance rather than a blessing at the old school. I would have filed a very big complaint with the school system, but without undeniable evidence and support, I am left with only my truth against them. My children's peers also were very naughty, defiant, and inappropriate, I had to stop letting my daughter on the bus because boys would try to look up her dress/skirt multiple times and was not held accountable in any way. I am hoping I am the only one with this experience from the school district and that conditions are no longer like this. My children attended from 2021-2024.

So sad our school is closing. St. Mark has enriched my kid's life. The blessing's from this christian education have exceeded our expectation's. We are praying that God will continue to grow within our children as we have to move to another school.

They have an awesome principal and teachers.
