My son started seventh grade in fall of 2009 and so far, he loves it. I've never seen or experienced any rudeness from the office staff. There are some excellent teachers, some not quite excellent but that's always the case. So far the administration seems terrific. I'll be watching throughout the year.

Seems to focus more on high ability students that will raise test scores for the school system. This happened to us at the elementary level as well. Our child is a student of average ability, a group that seems to be overlooked here. The school seems satisfied to keep these students where they are - little challenge or encouragement that will motivate them to achieve more. My child may never be an Albert Einstein but he has potential to go further, especially in math. He'll never achieve that as long as the school lets him slip through the cracks.
I have a child at Henley Middle School and I wish I had sent him to private school for three years. My child has had a few talented teachers that have helped him along the way and the guidance staff is amazing. However, he has been bullied not only by the students ( and then he was punished) but also by the administration! The office staff is rude. If your child is not a type A personality and VERY organized then they will have a tremendous amount of problems at this school. The administration does not focus on what was normally considered disciplinary problems and focuses more on small things that do not warrant in school or out of school suspension. The result is a group of students that treat each other very badly and know they can get away with it and are reinforced by the administration.
