School Reviews
| 5 My son attended YMS for 6-8th grades. He had a wonderful experience. The teachers truly care about the students at YMS. - Posted by Parent - School |
| 2 We have been very disappointed in this school. They do not care about your child's education, they only care about their numbers. Half the time, the only sections they cover in a textbook are those items that are on the CRCT. My child was a straight A student before coming to Youth Middle. Now, she's bringing home B's and C's. - Posted by Parent - GAGir |
