Horrible. As a student here I have nearly got ISS for "offending a teacher" in a argument i had with the assistant principal. The teachers and staff are pretty much horrible, only few teachers are actaully cool and actually teach us something, and did i mention the staff are snowflakes, they take everything like its a big deal! And sometimes the staff will do bad things that can get them fired, but guess what they dont do anything about it! There is so many more bad things to explain this school, but all i have to say now is that if you have the chance, dont go to this horrible school.p.s - on their website, so they dont make it seem like the school is low quality and bad, they delete any bad reviews up there.

The bad teachers at this school are ruining my child's middle school experience. I have so much to say just about last week! I don't think there is enough space here to write about all the terrible things that have happened to my child. The poor kids beat up on the middle class kids. The poor kids are coddled while the middle class kids are antagonized and taunted by the teachers. My child has been physically attacked on 2 separated occasions. The administration doesn't care about the fact the some of their teachers bully the students. The teachers at this school are very lazy, do not grade work on time and are not ashamed to admit it! They go on and on lecturing the students about life and how hard its going to be for them when they get in to high school, but then they don't even prepare the kids for high school level work! I know my children are worse off for having gone to this school. The principal and Vice Principal don't care about your child's problems and are fake, fake! The teachers are extremely childish and are on their cell phones non stop! My child's experience with this school and my experience with this school has been a living hell.

I have had 2 kids in Northwoods and they both had the same 7th grade Math teacher. This teacher is not adequate to teach. As a community many parents feel the same way about this teacher. The administration doesn't seem to care that this teacher is a bully and mean!

The principals and teachers are not qualified for their jobs. My child went from being an A/B student to failing since attending this school. They single my child out. It appears they are setting my child up to fail. They do not give my child credit for completed work leaving my child with 0's. Because it appears they deliberately will not go in a look to see that my child has done the work. Telling my child when my child ask about it the teacher will respond "I have five classes to grade" well, the other students seem to be getting credit for completed work? Also one teacher feels compelled to constantly bring up to the students how he was abused as a child and bullied. Very unprofessional to discuss with students. Also if a students political beliefs differ from this same teachers he seems to target my child for my child's different views. He is a very unqualified unprofessional teacher and should in my opinion find another line of work. My child's teachers seem to deliberately single out my child looking for any reason to penalize my child for the slightest things that other students do and are not singled out and penalized for. I believe if the teachers actually attempted to help my child rather than claiming they were, my child would be a better student. Some of the teachers here come off as extremely childish. I can not wait until we no longer have to deal with this school. If you are in district, I strongly suggest you try very hard to find another middle school in district for your child to attend.
