Riverside Middle School

I too have children at North Loop Elementary and I am very happy there. My kids live in another school district but refuse to leave since they have been here. I have never had any problems with teachers or the administration. If I do have an issue, the principal and teachers have been there to hear me out and help me resolve my issues. I don't understand the breakfast concern, if there is not enough breakfast, feed them at home like I do, and as to the water fountain issue, I called to find out about the water fountains outside because I too was told from my children about the fountains and I was informed that they were being repaired. Knowledge is everything, so I say to unhappy parents, call and get informed before you go out and bad mouth an excellent school. After all you get Recognized status from a principal and staff that don't care about children, to the contrary, you get happy children who want to go to school.

I went to this school and I'm very disappointed the gym and micro society building where under construction all year! The floors where rarely cleaned and the girls restroom at some point didn't have any paper towels for weeks! And that is barely everything wrong with this school I wouldn't recommend coming here.

I feel this is one of the best schools I could choose for my children. The principal, Mr. Mcintyre and all his staff are very dedicated. They are very involved and get the parents involved as well. They show they care for every single child. The principal and teachers seek the best way to help the children succeed.

Switching from a charter school to this school has been the greatest change for my kids. We are so happy we made the change for so many reasons. The class sizes are small and the children get more one on one help from their teachers. The teachers are amazing. My daughter, who was struggling in certain subjects at the other school, now has much more confidence in herself and schoolwork. The last school used only electronic assignments. The students at this school have paper assignments which, I believe, is better. Students have time to work on homework at school, so when our kids get home they actually have time to just be kids. The school uses the Abeka curriculum, which is a great program. We love this school and all of the staff there. They truly love their jobs and it shows in our children.
