School Reviews

Personally as an ex-student, Middle Township is the worst school I've been to. The teachers do not have control of their students and are more worried about rushing through the work then the students understanding. Many students are disrespectful and cause drama over little things. Middle is not what they say. I felt like I didn't fit in and left halfway through my freshman year. I wouldn't even give one star.

This school is insufficient. The education system lacks what it essentially needs, good educators. The teachers care more about feeling superior rather than the education of the students. There is no good electives or courses outside of regular classes. The books are torn apart, and the people are rude & biased. I don't recommend.
