| 4/17/2011 | other | This school has a lot of drama , i mean TONS of it . i am graduating in abt 2 months & i been going here since the 6th grade . the education here is good but some of the teachers here act horrible towards the students however there are some nice teachers tht would love to help ! but other than tht , i would think to send your child somewhere else . * |
| 2/7/2011 | parent | i think like any school, middle river middle is what each child makes of it. if you are a good parent who is involved in the school and ask questions, join the PTA and is aware not only what goes on in the classroom but throughout the entire school, you will find middle river to be a good school. Be involved, thats what is most important. |
| 3/24/2010 | parent | This school is out of control. For the students and parents that worked so hard with their children to instill good morals, disipline and proper behavior, what a Disappointment!! For our 6th graders. The children that were sent to Middle River from Oliver Beach Elementary have never had to deal with such lack of structure. I am afraid that these GT kids will be lost to this type of out of control atmosphere. These students spend most of their day trying to avoid physical attack in the hallways or giving answers to those cheating students who threaten attack instead of being allowed to focus on their own challenges of learning, if learning some new material is available at all. So what are the parents and students that want a good education and cannot afford private schools suppose to do? |
| 2/16/2010 | parent | I continue to be disappointed with the school. Although, I've heard that the administration has been doing things for school improvement, there is such a lack of school pride - it seems like the administration is spinning their wheels. The PTO is relatively non existant and the current PTO people do nothing to illicit parental involvement and thus there is little to nothing extra done for the students. In addition, academically I don't think that the teachers are pushing the students to do their best. |
| 6/11/2009 | parent | I think that the school is making good strides to improve its reputation. The administration seems to be on the ball trying to keep up with the kids. I think improvement could be made in making the children more respectful and listen to substitutes or parents at school. Its important to make them be held to a higher standard. Expect more from them. My daughter is doing okay in school (first year) and the only thing I was very disappointed about was that I asked a teacher to encourage her to participate more in extra curricular activites but the teacher did not bother to help her. Academically, things look good and comparable to other schools in the area. |
| 10/29/2008 | student | im am a student a middle river middle school . and i hate it . they never solve problems and instead of talking to you they yell at you . i would not go to this school if i where you . i am changing schools because i dislike that school so much . |
| 10/15/2008 | parent | I find that the school does not handle conflict as needed. The staff can at times be very laid back and the students miss challenging opportunities! |
| 8/23/2008 | student | I've attended Middle River Middle School since 6th grade. I love it here. Some of the teachers are nice and some of them are strict. I think this is a good school. Some of the kids make the school seem bad,but it really isn't. This is my opinion about Middle River Middle School. |
| 2/18/2008 | student | I think that it is a very good school it has nice teachers and they treat the kids with respect |
| 10/31/2007 | parent | My son has been in this school since the sixth grade. In the beginning it was rough and I felt that the teacher didn't really care. This is his last year and so far I am please with all of the educators and the new principal. The school is what you make it and what your child does with the education provided. |
| 9/21/2005 | former student | As a former student of Middle River, I have a positive rating over all. However, I was in the GT program and wasn't exposed to the standard curriculum. The principal and assistant principal were always available for help. The after-school activities were abound. 8th grade remains my favorite time of all years, and I am currently a high school senior. My little brother goes to MRMS now and he is in the standard courses. He, however, is not doing so well, but I believe that is his own fault. One thing I have noticed that I really like is the fact that some teachers now e-mail the homework to parents. Over all, Middle River provides a great learning experience if you are willing to grab a hold of it. |
| 12/7/2004 | student | i am currently going to middle river and i hate it there. they barely settle problems and always let bad problem people back. i consider no one to go there. I am changing schools due to the failure to let children to have a safe enviroment. |
| 10/22/2004 | parent | My daughter is currently enrolled in Middle River Middle School, and she is very happy there! She is doing very well. The Principal & Assistant Principals are working very hard to have continued success there, and their efforts are continuing to pay off. |
| 2/10/2004 | parent | I have a son that went to Middle River from 2000 thru 2003 and a daughter currently in 7th grade there. Both my children have received excellant educations there. The staff is cares deeply about the students and in turn the students have great respect for the teachers and staff. |
