I'm in Gainesville Middle School the School is good but I think I could do better one of the things is I think It's to cheap.
I went to Gainesville starting December and I think it was a good school. The band and orchestra program weren't that good but chorus is fantastic! Our sports teams always won 1st or 2nd place. Some teachers were mean and snobby but overall, It's a good school.
All of the teachers my child had while attending were excellent and enthusiastic, but the administration is something else. Not responsive at all to parental concerns, and they treat all of the children as if they were in 1st grade, not as teenagers preparing for high school. My biggest problem was their practice of making the kids wipe down cafeteria tables and sweep floors (kid were randomly chosen by a spin of the wheel, not based on behavior, no handwashing or other sanitation methods were employed -- even though they had several MRSA outbreaks -- and often the kids would be late to class due to clean-up duty, while the paid custodian only stood and watched). Despite numerous parental objections, principal saw nothing wrong and never changed procedure even though she said she would (ie, make gloves mandatory). All in all, I'm glad my child is out of here!!
