School Reviews

Middlebrook is just too large, and the kids get lost. There are many teachers in 7th and 8th grade who humiliate rather than inspire and motivate. This school has a very good 6th grade program, but after that it is poor academically, and fosters intense social tension. It is already tough enough for kids to navigate the social challenges and insecurities of middle school. Stay a away from this school!!!
