3.0 Middle School Student

2/5/2022

It's pretty alright for a middle school. Some teachers are great that actually care about their students and making students feel like the class is a community they feel a part of. But some classes are not that engaging and students might feel like there not learning things while in some classes they are learning a lot.

Teachers don't help and school is very stressful yet boring. I have met many students who the teacher's offend and the administration sees themselves as the victims.

Sligo Middle School was such a comfortable place to go to school. It truly felt like home and I had such a great time in my attendance there. I think the security could have been much better.

I graduated from Sligo last year (2021) and I had a great experience. The school had a really amazing atmosphere and I always felt supported. I felt prepared for high school, even for the advanced program I'm in.

2.0 parent

My child was an A student at Sligo and is now struggling in high school because she can't keep up with the work. Sligo just doesn't prepare students to work hard. They don't teach any study skills and don't challenge the kids.
