Thomas Starr King Middle School

The 2 years that we sent there it went from bad to worse. At this point in children’s lives they are going through a lot of changes physically, mentally, and emotionally. Their needs are not being met. Now everyone know that no matter what happens they can not be held back and must be promoted to the next grade. So the 3-4 hour of homework that counts for only 5% of the grade which is not even checked. Ends up being a waste of time. If I were you I would send you child to any other school but this one.

This school is a huge factory where the teachers have little time or energy in dealing with any learning challenges. It has been a terrible experience for my child.

This has been the best school experience thus far. Not without major difficulties but with challenge comes growth. I have seen my child grow and evolve greatly while at King. Her friends share key values and goals. Teachers are remarkable and passionate. With any institution, you get what you put in, though.

It is a great school has a good program
