Parkway Central Middle School

I'm a current student here (8th grade) and i transferred last year from a different school. It's not a bad school in terms of learning and accommodating kid's learning styles, but when it comes to bullying or bad behavior i feel like most of it is overlooked unless it's physical. I am personally a victim of this because I'm lesbian, and i have other friends on the LGBTQ+ spectrum that get bullied as well. However, there is little to no racism in the classes, at least to my experience. The community is very diverse and welcoming of people of any skin color. Also, certain teachers care more about your attendance and grades than your actual health (mental or physical), and won't lay off if you do one thing wrong, like getting your work done slowly. It's usually those same teachers that overwhelm students with work and have them staying up late with homework and making them tired, then blaming them for not doing their work quick enough. The schedule is based on Even and Odd days, and you only have 4 classes each day except for Wednesday when you have all 8. Lunches aren't the best but they also aren't terrible. That's all i can think of for now but i'm sure there's more problems

Excellent middle school. Administrators, teachers, and students are like a family. Love this school.

Excellent Teacher Parent communication. Great Facility and campus. The Staff cares about their Students and go the extra distance to insure comprehension and application. Teachers are extremely patient and creative, their assistants are very much engaged and capable.

So far we have had a great experience. My son is a current 6th grader.

I am a current student at PCMS and let me just say.... I hate it. It's not just the tons of homework that I'm mad about, there are other things like. At the school there are two popular groups. The Girl Clique and The Boy Clique The Boy Clique are just mainly annoying and stupid The Girl Clique is just messed up on so many levels. The teachers think they're angels but they're not! They also verbal bully other kids. They're rich girls who are not only mean but also a bit racist. I know this because my best friend was a victim. Also the teachers... Honestly I feel like they don't understand me. I can't talk to them that easy. I can't trust them as well. Some teachers are nice I agree, but others are just unfair at times. The lunch is terrible too. They may serve Chik-Fil-A on Thursdays but that isn't enough to convince me. So 1/10 I give this school a 1! If you want a quality school to go to. Go somewhere else!
