Millburn Middle School

Teachers are absolutely great! My kid has been attending for three years and loves every single teacher there. The school pays great attention in developing character and leadership through various opportunities during and after school. PTO is very supportive and provides many opportunities for parents to be involved in the community.

My child goes to this school. I am extremely satisfied with the learning and the school its self. Teachers and staff are amazing. Wonderful leadership.

When we toured several schools in the area, it became pretty clear that Far Brook was different. The campus itself is really special. It has only been a second year, but we’ve had a very good experience so far. What we appreciate most is how much the school lets kids be kids while still taking learning seriously. There’s a lot of hands-on work, time outside, and room for curiosity, which has made a big difference for our child’s confidence and love of school.The teachers genuinely know their students. It doesn’t feel like anyone is just moving through a system — they recognize strengths, quirks, and when a kid needs a little extra push or support. Communication with parents has been thoughtful and consistent without being overwhelming. The parent community is very strong and very warm, and this has been a constant highlight for us. Parents are very engaged and the vast majority are very down to earth.One thing that surprised us in a good way is how much emphasis there is on creativity and problem-solving in addition to academics. Art, music, and outdoor learning aren’t extras here — they are core. That balance has helped our child grow socially as well as academically.It’s a warm, close-knit community, and while it’s not a “pressure cooker” environment, kids are still very well prepared for the next step, including competitive high schools.
