This is a great school! Dr. Russo really turned it around and Ms. Tinsley is a wonderful woman who will continue to improve the school. The Cambridge program has been perfect for my kids! The Chromebooks and digital access to assignments has been a blessing and stopped most of the lost pieces of paper. I recommend this middle school to all my friends and neighbors.
