Malcolm E Nettingham Middle School

We moved at the beginning of the pandemic and my daughter is now in 3rd grade and is doing very well. I’ve been impressed with how well she’s done both academically and socially/emotionally. She has an IEP and has made tremendous strides in the last two years. Overall it’s a great community of teachers, kids and parents.

Brunner is fantastic. One kid graduated and another is still there.

My son has been attending the school for 2 years now.Our experience is great so far. Education is great and teachers are very caring and go above and beyond for the good of the students.I am glad that my son is part of the school.

Very happy with the 1st and 2nd grade teachers and the Principal! Excited for the next year, 3rd grade!

While children have had caring teachers and we are deeply grateful for the dedication of our children’s classroom teachers, and building-level staff who show up every day with heart and effort, often working under conditions that lack adequate support and increasing demands. Our overall experience has been overshadowed by persistent failures within the Special Services department—especially around safety, communication, follow-through, and delivery of services our children are legally entitled to. We've raised serious safety concerns through the proper channels, with little resolution or accountability. This isn’t a reflection of classroom teachers, who are doing their best—it’s a systemic issue that needs awareness. To quote another source, “Bayberry is no longer the crown jewel on the hill it once was” Families should be aware that navigating this system often requires significant outside support and self-advocacy. This should not be the norm.

Terrible, I saw rumors that a teacher tied a kid to a chair
