Benjamin Franklin Middle School in Springfield is great place to stuents to learn, participate in extra-curriculum activities, and excel in their performance acamedically. The multi track class system helps those students who need the extra help to the over achiever in sixth through eighth grades. This is a critical time in a young child's life and the proper environment is essential for the students to learn lifelong achievements and learn how to properly socialize with their fellow classmates.

This is not a good school. Choose a private or a charter school. The administration are rude and just want to ruin students career by giving out way to many detention.

Wow - I've had two children go through school at FMS and found the school, staff, and faculty to be absolutely wonderful. One of my children has 3 developmental disabilities, and the other was in regular track classes. In both cases we found the teachers to be very interested in our children and their well-being and educational progress. The child with developmental disabilities is now graduating from high school and started out freshman year in the high track classes. He is planning on going to college in Chemical Engineering. Our other child will be a freshman in high school next year and is sad to leave FMS. If your experience at FMS was poor, I suggest you look at your own attitude as to the reason. School is what the student and the parents make of it, and very seldom is the administration as poor as what people say.
