Dunloggin Middle School Reviews

The teachers do a great job in spite of constant poor decisions about the leadership of the school made by an inept administration. The students had to suffer the following due to a program enacted by the Principal of this school: 7 MSA tests/per day every Monday and Friday: time taken out of core subjects, daily, to prepare for the state MSA; PE and art teachers teaching reading skills such as prefixes and suffixes; an obvious decrease in staff morale affecting the students. Until the parents complained, our children were missing valuable time away from their core subjects in order to increase scores for a state test (a 'school report card') for our school which already scores in the 90's for both math and reading. Thank goodness my child will graduate and leave this school so he can no longer be affected by this Principal's poor decisions.

The teachers here are great, it is clean, and the students do not ever bully! This is a great school, and I would recomend it. The only thing I would like to say that is bad is that there can be a lot of homework at a time. This is a great school!

Every milestone in a students life should be acknowledged. It is disappointing that there is not promotional program for 8th graders to share this day with their family and friends. A simple desert social for 45 minutes is not acceptable. It appears that this was thrown together at the last minute after the realizing that parents were not included in any activities. Perhaps in the future, a program that includes students, parents, and faculty acknowledging successful completion of Middle School will be taken into consideration. Several other schools in the county have programs.

This school has a poor administration that pressures students too much, while the field trips are decent, education offered by this school is not proficient, in fact it is below average

Dunloggin Middle school is a very good school. They have Living History Day where 8th graders dress as a historical American figure and act and talk about their life for 5 minutes. They have Strings classes and Strings adjudication. 8th grade science students work 3 months on an individual science project. The Drama club puts on two plays a year. The academics are great and the extracurricular activities are great.

!70 Dunloggin students visited the Walters Art Museum on March 13th. Well prepared and well organised they were an excellent group of students and all 10 docents touring with them were impressed by their knowledge and courtesy. Appreciation to Mr Matthew Branch for organising a smooth visit.

This school uses activties and planned days to make up for to make for its poor enviroment. As an student at Dunloggin, I am extremely unsatisfited with this school. The teachers and principal seem try their best to control the students, who are often stubborn. Every day when I go to school, I find students in each class talking back to the teachers, refusing to do work, and teasing any person who is not in a 'cliche'. The teachers notice this, but rarely do anything. For a small school, you would expect more controllablity with their students. They have no school spirit at all. My time at this school was terribly unpleasent.
