D J Red Simon Middle School

I absolutely do not recommend them. I read the previous reviews and thought it was just a bad experience that others had, but it actually happened to me too. They don't care about your children's well being. The principal pretends to care, but in reality, she doesn't support you in the slightest. They didn't want my daughter there, and I had to transfer her to another school. They are rude.

The 22-23 school year was great. Our daughter was so excited to go back and the 23-24 year has been an absolute flop. As a parent I feel so incredibly disconnected with my child's school. They say it's to make things safer but it makes parents feel completely unaware of their child's environment. Since school began this they have taken complete liberties with release procedures changing them multiple times with NO NOTICE. Today our children were released 15 minutes later than normal with zero explanation. I am disgusted with how Principal Dipalma has been completely absent outside of her weekly pre fabricated emails that completely lack any sort of explanation for her constantly changing procedures. They are hiding behind 'district policy' and keeping parents in the dark. Shame.
