Milagro Middle School

The school I believe does not want to listen to the parents about how the teachers conduct and integrity is lacking. The Nurse is mazing and the Kindergarten and 1st grade homeroom teachers are great. But the Principal, secretary and the PE teacher have issues that for as a parent is concerning. I may transfer my child to another school.

Hongying terrible teacher principal and his boss won’t correct her terrible behavior towards certain students

Hasta ahora ha sido una buena escuela.

The school is very good in many was but they are not so effective with lively strong-willed boys. They expelled our boy a few weeks before the school year ended.

I've had two kids at this school and wanted to contribute my positive review. The diversity issue is huge in Santa Fe, but I actually feel that LMM is more proactive than many other places in trying to address it. I see a variety of different ethnicities represented in each class. The pueblos are better represented here than at other private schools I visited. I definitely would like to see more people of color, but I think a lot of that comes down to Santa Fe as a city being too homogenous. I hope this will change, but it will take time. Regarding learning differences, they do subtly evaluate each child and meet with parents to make suggestions. They bring various therapists into the classroom to work with students who need help. That is a regular, weekly occurrence. I ultimately transferred my older child to a different school, where she could receive more help, due to the specific nature of her learning difference. When she reached a certain age, it became beneficial for her to be in a smaller classroom. But when she was younger, and before we completely understood the nature of her learning difference, the administration at LMM was proactive about supporting her and others who had the kinds of learning differences that can easily be addressed (for example, a child with reading issues gets in-school therapy for reading; a child with speech issues gets in-school speech therapy). There IS a thick packet of homework handed out each month, but there is one afternoon per week when kids can stay after school for "homework help." They chip away at their homework with the help of a teacher and other kids, thus avoiding some of the parent-child conflict that comes up around this issue. Overall, the teachers at LMM are wonderful. It is a kind and inclusive environment, while also being academically rigorous and character-building.

I am truly happy with the overall experience with SFWS and greatly recommend this school to everyone.

we have had a great 3 years at the school and have watched our son KSL grow in a variety of areas academically, emotionally, and social.
