Pinole Middle School

I am a parent who has been dealing with the teachers and admin for the past 2 years and it has been a nightmare! What happened to teachers who are there for more then a paycheck? I have reached out multiple times for support with my son and on 3 parent teacher conferences 1 teacher didn't show up at all. This school needs to get it together to help these kids who are going through so much transition emotionally and externally and demonstrate through strong leadership how to deal with life on life's terms. I really dislike that my kids have to experience this place!

ohMYGOD i am a student and i hate this school so much i cannot wait to get out of here everyone's so rude and annoying and the classes are so loud and these kids literally do not know how to be quiet and its not like the teachers wanna try to make them quiet and ugh this school gives nightmares im seriously thinking about homeschool

I am a student here, and I'm in 7th grade. Just by being here for a little bit over 6 months, this school is okay. Compared to other middle schools in the district, its like prim and proper school here. Its sad to see that we have this beautiful new building, and this badly behaviored students just totally treat it like its a piece of garbage. Most students have NO manner whatsoever, and they totally run the school. Theres maybe 5 teachers who actually care about the students here, and most of them are sexist, racist, or just totally unfair in general. I have learned, but I feel as if I haven't learned enough this year, I'm in all advanced classes and have all A's and B's. This school can do better. They have very unreasonable discipline, for example, for 3 weeks straight we had to be on "lock down" during lunch because we were littering. It meant we had to stay in our seats until the next period. I think thats unreasonable because that makes the bad kids worse! They shouldn't take it out on everyone. The bathrooms are okay, but they smell, and a bunch of the locks don't work! If you want your child to get harrassed by ghetto kids and not get a good education I suggestprivateschool
