Arbutus Middle School Reviews

 
I like arbutus middle school i am also an honor student. You should not blame the teachers for your children being in low classes it is their fault. They need to pay attention in class and they need to stop being lazy and you need to stop spoiling them. The school may not have the best reputation but if you went there you would see what I mean. Thanks

AMS is socio-econimcally diverse--so the values on education from the parents is varied. It's hard to teach kids who come in with more emotional baggage than any adult should have, and to motivate them to succeed. My daughter is in top classes--so her teachers don't have to spend their time putting out fires--they actually get to teach--but, like any other 21st century school--it's tough for teachers to teach when kids don't care and don't try.

Arbutus Middle School is horrible for 6th graders just starting out. The 6th grade team (most of them - not all) Mr. Montgomery is excellent but most of the othe teachers are young and arrogant. The have know concern or care for these 11/12 year olds and no patience with the at all. My child has not learned much this year because the teachers are more concerned about silly issues than teaching and trying to mold the 6th graders into their new enviroment of middle school. The Vice Principal is horrible. Not understanding on bit, not easy to talk to and also very arrogant. The guidance department is awesome and if it was not for them I would not have made it through this year with my child in this terrible teaching enviroment.

I am beyond dissatisfied with Arbutus Middle. The educational value of the children is placed very low. The teachers coming in are all so young that the students don't take them seriously. The teacher interaction with the parents is horrid. To get the teachers to give positive feedback is something close a miracle.

I've been to this school for 3 years and I absolutely love it there. It's really cool

Arbuts is a wonerful school. I am a 7 grader there. I'm an honor student . So many of my friends are too and when there is a school full of students like this there has to be a reason. I think that reason is Ms. Johnson. She is inispirational and is a wonderful role model for the students at Arbuts Middle School. Any kid would be lucky to go to this school.

Arbutus Middle has a new principal this year and it's for the better. She is smart, innovative and dynamic. Hopefully, she will continue to lead the school in the right direction. Hats off to you Principal Johnson.

The English/Reading department is very strong. They have a few amazing teachers in 6th grade.

My daughter started sixth grade this year at Arbutus Middle. I have been very pleased with this school. The teachers use e-mail to advise you about upcoming tests as well as study groups. They are also great about responding to your concerns by both e-mail and telephone calls. I have no complaints about this school. The teachers are caring.

This school's educational value is incredibly low. I advise against enrolling your children here. They will learn very little, if any, vital lessons.

The teacher involvement at this school is poor. Whenever I had a problem or question, I never got a response back after several requests, and trying to get one of the administraters there to respond was just as bad.
