Bell Middle School

Posted August 5, 2009

I am so impressed with how much this school goes above and beyond to assure a student succeeds. From clubs to literacy they are on track for the 21st Century learner. They offer mentors to help students from a nearby retirement community, students at School of Mines mentor and their new mission of 'Literacy..your rope to the Summit' is outstanding. Their honor program will prepare any college bound student the tools to succeed. Teachers work countless hours of their own to help students succeed. Parents are always welcome to help or observe classrooms. Bell office has a very welcoming enviroment.

This school is okay, but I don't think its reputation is really deserved. For one, the principal seems to leave everything to the vice. I'm in 7th grade and I enjoy all of my teachers, but some of the staff (not the teachers) act like they hate their job.

Also, the teacher quality varies quite a bit. While attending Bell Middle as a seventh grader, i had no problem with any of my teachers, but when i had reached the eight grade, my teacher quality varied. I had problems with specifically one teacher, who all in all refused to actually grade a single piece of work, having us (the students) or her teacher 'aides' grade tests, which promoted cheating and falsely improving in the class room.

I have a gifted student and chose to send him to Bell rather than our local school that has a gifted program. He is in the honors program and has been appropriately challenged and has enjoyed his classes (pretty impressive for an early adolescent!) I give Bell a 9 out or 10
