2.0 Middle School Student

1/24/2020

The food is terrible. My macaroni is grey, and it's horrible. One of my teachers has said, "oh my gosh, I hate my job; why did I decide to become a teacher I hate this." This isn't the attitude a teacher should have. Now not all of the teachers are like this; some are fantastic and love their jobs like Mr. Jacobs.

this school is absolutely wonderful. I wish I was there for longer :( one con is that homework is VERY stressed upon, and sometimes its even counted as a grade. one pro is that all of the teachers and staff are very caring and always want to hear your opinion.

The counseling team is exceptional—I’ve faced a few complicated situations with my child, and I always fel...

Our experience at Lunsford MS has been excellent. My son came here on special permission after having a very difficult 6th grade year at his assigned school. We did not know about "special permission" or we would have applied sooner. The teachers are all very organized and go above and beyond to hel...
