Tiffin Middle School

In our experience with Calvert schools, the school does not support family involvement unless your involvement is agreement with the school. Education and learning is not valued. Teachers lack skills and abilities to adequately teach. They are not qualified educators and the school will do everything to support the teacher, not the learning of the student. The school advertisement of being different by design wants to promote CCP classes yet does not have a qualified guidance counselor who understands graduate requirements, testing and courses that will transfer to college. The school applies harsh discipline and does not support the wellness of children. Other reviews are adequate when stating the school will threaten to remove your child from Calvert if you do not support the lack of education, the discriminatory discipline practices etc. As a parent, when you need support for your child, you are discouraged from being involved. There are many happy students but many who are not. The learning and teaching is below average with no evidence of getting better. Special education needs support. The 1:40 ratio is too much for anyone to be successful. The school claims to tutor but lacks follow through in all areas. The staff applies one catholic standard but does not lead by example.
