My experience here was a bit rough at first but once the principals changed it became better. Some of the teachers here were outstanding but others didn't really seem to care about the students.

Can't get anyone to help my son on home bound disability at this new school this year!? I had to go to the district to help me get his work established and it's been over a month and still no help from this school?! They won't even call back after leaving message after message!

Furman Middle has made an great change. The Principals has done a Good Job with enforcing Rules. E-talk, Homework hotlines, and parent websites are the best. Now I can communicate with administration, teachers and staff more effectively! Keep up the GOOD work Furman Middle School..
