Jim Bridger Middle School

Posted July 22, 2009

Two of our kids attended the magnet at Bridger, and we saw great things happen. The band teacher is probably the best in town, unbelievable what those kids do. The principal is very involved and welcoming and seems to know where the school should be headed. The kids are polite (for middle school kids) and seem happy - our kids were, considering that it is middle school. The 'hands off' policy seems to keep bullying down. The magnet counselor is one in a million - very good at seeing and meeting individual student needs. Most of the teachers have been great, and when the occasional problem arose, the teacher and/or the principal were right on it and we could move forward. Both kids left there well-prepared for high school. Great teachers, great principal, great counselor, good overall culture and expectations for kids.

My Daughter is thriving in the Magnet program here. The teachers have been great. It is challenging and the math and science programs are above what she would be getting in her zoned middle school. Not to mention the electives she is getting here, not even close to what she would she could get in her zoned middle school.

My child gets picked on constantly, the teachers never explain the material. The bathrooms are unsanitary luckily for my son im switching him to J.D Smith Middle school.
