I think that this school is very good this is my child second year here and shes very excited about it so if your looking for a school try to get your child there i mean they meet new friends my neighbor is the assistant principal

I think that the Magnet Program is the best, not only are you in some really interesting advanced classes, but they have like a ton of cool field trips, especially the end of the year field trips. You feel really priveleged in the magnet program, it can be tough but it's worth it.

I am currently a student in JFK middle, in the 8th grade, and honestly this is probably one of the best middle schools in the state you could possibly go to. The teachers are very friendly and are available to help you if you have any trouble, and the school makes it easy to transition from elementary school into middle school, and eventually to high school. The BEAT program is tough, but it's taught me a lot- giving me skills i need to stay organized in high school, not to mention the courses beyond the grade level that will be interesting for those advanced students. There are some drawbacks- not being able to have PE or choose your own electives. But you get so much more back academically. Also, i've met some amazing friends, and i believe it's made me into a better person.

I was a former student in the JFK magnet program, and currently a freshman in high school. The 3 years I spent in the B.E.A.T program were the best and I am positive if I had not attended that school, I would not be in anyway prepared for high school. The teachers in the B.E.A.T program are the most amazing teachers ever. They take it upon them selves to make sure that every student comprehends the material and they don't give up until the students do. The school it self is wonderful, the staff and administration try to maintain a clean and healthy environment for the students. If you are looking for a great magnet school in the North Miami Beach area, i really recommend this school.
