My experience with White Station Middle School for my child's education has been rather disappointing.While there were some aspects that showed promise, overall, the learning environment did not meet my expectations. The learning experience at White Station Middle School fell short of being satisfactory. The curriculum seemed outdated, lacking in innovation and engagement. My child often came home disinterested and unmotivated, which hindered their overall academic progress I believe. The teaching quality at White Station Middle School was, at best, decent. While some teachers demonstrated dedication and competence in their subject areas, others seemed less enthusiastic and struggled to effectively communicate complex concepts. One of the most disappointing aspects of White Station Middle School was its poor mental support. It was disheartening to see that the school did not prioritize the emotional well-being of its students adequately, and the safety measures at White Station Middle School, as they were very low. Instances of bullying and disciplinary issues seemed to be handled inadequately, leaving students vulnerable to potentially harmful situations. I would come to the office at least monthly to pick up my child due to a fight or a argument.I do not recommend this school for any parents looking for a great experience for their child. The staff are quite friendly, but the actual experience for the child is unbelievable. There are so many better places to go.

It’s as if the kids at this school are encouraged to pick on and bully each other. The administration simply turns a blind eye to students fighting and threatening each other at school. If a student reports being bullied the teachers and principal take no real action to stop it. There is a really messed up power dynamic at this school that all the teachers and administrators refuse to address. They let the bullies pick on and make fun of the special education students that go there and don’t do anything about it. In the past two years my child has had two or even three teachers a year in almost every subject because teachers don’t seem to stick around at this school very long. The school does not communicate issues with the parents or students even and if your child doesn’t keep you informed about what is going on in this school no one will. I know it gets really high scores because it has optional programs but don’t even consider going here if you’re in a traditional class. Those are the class rooms full of students with behavior problems and they are allowed or even expected to do whatever they want and act out. Not enough staff take teaching the traditional students seriously do those students don’t take school seriously.

My child loves it. It's a very diverse school with a rigorous curriculum and has a great reputation.

I have appreciate the outstanding communication the school, teachers, and parent teacher organization provides. My child loves this school. The only issue we have is the 7:15 AM start time, but my child has adapted well. Me not so much!
