Bullying in this school is an issue. Teachers and administration ignore it. They are only interested in their school ratings and will do anything to try and pacify the situation until they can officially get credit for your child and let other schools take care of their failures!
Not only does Middlesex have an unsatisfactory and unchallenging curriculum, the whole Darien school system does. I moved from out of state in elementary school and was not only substantially farther in my studies than my fellow classmates, but also was entirely unimpressed by new material when it eventually came my way. When I came to Middlesex, I found a few fantastic teachers, a lot more inadequate ones, and a group of students so uninspired that they cared more about sports than academics. I am still in correspondence with a friend of mine from the Midwest, and recently found out that her equivalent of 'regular math' had done so well the past year that 'regular math' ceased to exist, and the kids from it moved up to our equivalent of 'advanced math'. And here we are, with our regular math kids getting C s and D s. Enough said.
Middlesex is a great school for students to learn and thrive. The teachers are responsible and very well educated. Students recieve a little more homework than necassary, but grades come out usually high! The students love the school and many fundraisers are supported for causes such as UNICEF, Molly's Miracle and more. In fact, Middlesex's community has been in first place for most amount of money donated to UNICEF for 2 years now! Clay Akin, winner of American Idol one year, came to Middlesex to congradulate the children on their hard work. We CURRENTLY are MMS students and we thouroly believe MMS has a lot to offer! WE <3 MIDDLESEX MIDDLE SCHOOL!
