Bartow Middle School

well... I know why test scores are so low.. My daughter says there is NO control of kids in her classes. They act like animals in a zoo. She can't hear the teacher talking and that the teacher after 15 minutes gives up and sits down. I'm appalled that my daughter has to fake sick and call me so she can cry and beg me to get her out of there!! The noise levels are at 10 + all day and she literally is starting to have panic attacks. This is ridiculous and I wish I had more options for schooling in my area. Lunch is in the MIDDLE of her Science class?? They get up in science class walk to eat and then walk back to finish class?? What in the World? I'm so absolutely devastated that my child is unhappy at school. Poor poor review..and it seems like it's a deserved review! Shame on this "school"

Personally I'm an eighth grader now and over my past three years of being here Bartow Middle school has changed tremendously. When I was in sixth grade, I'll admit it wasn't the greatest place in the world. Some of the teachers were a little rude and the education system wasn't all that good, in fact I'd say it was horrible. But now a days, BMS is turning into a great school, this may be because of our new principle Mr. Roberts. He's trying his best to make BMS a better and safer place. I honestly Like the quote he used to make "good is the enemy of great, and great is what we need here at bartow middle school." He stopped saying this, and I believe its because our goal has been accomplished. Bartow middle school is now a much better place. I recommend thus school.

It's an amazing school the teachers are great and know what they are doing teachers are kind and students behavior has improved greatly people think they know everything about bartow middle from a rating and drama and rumors but really they don't if your kid is having issues or getting bad grades it's there fault don't believe any lies they make up about why they are getting bad grades. Middle school changes kids.

my school is horrible there is always cursing and smoking i would not recommend it
