4.0 Middle School Student

9/7/2021

The teachers aren't great, I did have one throughout my two years here that I really liked, but the rest of the teachers weren't too good at teaching. Most of the students are relatively nice, and I really like its clubs and activities. Otherwise this school is pretty good, and has a couple important errors it might need to fix.

Brown has a program for kids on the autism spectrum, which is mainstream with help in social skills, organization and more. My son has been in the program for three years and is thriving. The counselors are passionate and committed. This has been a great experience for us.

Only a couple of teachers are really passionate and enthusiastic, doing their job properly. The administration is focused on policing and punishing rather than on educating and instructing. Most of the secretaries are rude to me and to my kids. I am disgusted by this school.

The school does not weed out its poor performing teachers (and there a few). The team groupings are not well thought out and many kids are place...

Personally, as a student that has been going here for two-about-to-be-three years, I find this school good. All the teachers are good, but they could be better (except for a few, they're literally the gems of all the teachers). They do teach well though! The administration looks a little scary to so...
