(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - JJMS has been a Godsend for us. Our son, started JJMS in the 6th grade. He is autistic and was used to having a one-on-one aide with him at all times. The Principal and her super efficient and loving staff has been able to move our son to full inclusion over the last few years. The staff at JJMS has helped our son to love school and the learning process. Each student is treated as an individual and the instruction each student receives is superb. There is no better middle school than JJMS.

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school is a joke. Needs to be shut down. Dirty, messy, classrooms are makeshift, bland, do not demonstrate a quality educational atmosphere. Teachers are sub-par, under-qualified. Cult-like atmosphere. these so-called educators think they are the best thing going when in fact they are undisciplined, disheveled, lacking in class, rude, mean and make a mockery of education. It is sad that so many teachers are forced to move out of state or retire and idiots like these get our tax dollars! DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE. They deserve a good education that this charter joke cannot provide.
