Coal Ridge Middle School

Front office staff does not know alot about the classes offered, refers everything to counseling office, principal shows no interest in anything and is never available.

My son is in 6th grade honors and loves his teachers, I think the principle needs to be more involved though! I think the upper admin at this school really fails the students and parents. There are some great teachers but they don't have the support of the upper admin. I think the teacher/parent communication could be improved as well.

We have been pleased with our 13 year olds education at Coal Ridge. I agree that there needs to be more parental involvment with the school. I have never felt like our son has been unsafe. The band program is excellent and we have also been happy with the honors program.

Coal Ridge is a decent, average school. I'm not impressed by the classes offered nor with parent/teacher communication. There are few opportunities for true electives, and arts and music are obviously low-priority offerings. What passes for honors classes would be standard classes at most other middle schools I've had experience with. I'm disappointed with the level of communication from teachers, even when I call or email them directly. The school website is regularly out-of-date and, consequently, not very informative. Extra-curricular activities are few and costly. I appreciate that the staff are overall nice, but I would prefer a stronger educational status. Budget cuts have not helped matters. I wish we had a convenient alternative to CRMS!
