We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I went to JMI and it was a really good school. Just like every other school in North Edison like JP Stevens, JAMS, WWMS, MLK, it is good. It prepares you well forr middle school and there are really nice and helpful teachers.
