Pacetti Bay Middle School

Terrible. I am one of three kids in my family to attend this school, and in those 3 years, I received no disciplinary action. However, I can honestly say that the schools staff bullies students and belittles them. The school is horrific and teaches students that they are just a number. They harass children for their excessive dress code. Including face paint during school spirit week, dyed hair, hats, sunglasses, etc. I have witnessed kids being called out amongst their peers through a megaphone for taking water bottles that they bought out of the lunch room. I have witnessed their horrific dean Norris chase students down the hallway for stepping over the taped line while trying to get to class on time. Not only is this school extremely overboard, it makes me sad as a previous student for how they treat kids.

I am very pleased with the quality of teachers, staff, and academic programs. My daughter loves this school and is excelling due to the supportive nature of the environment. I am especially impressed by the innovative teaching structure of the classes by using technology and flipped learning in certain classes. I also love the band class. She is playing her clarinet beautifully after only a few months. I definitely recommend this school for a well rounded, excellent learning experience.

The staff at Pacetti Bay, from the front desk to the football field, have been amazing. I have two students here, 6th and 7th, and they love Pacetti. Everyone is helpful and friendly while still teaching the kids responsibility. There is positive energy everywhere and am so happy my kids get to go to this amazing school.

My son just started 6th grade here and so far we're pretty happy with it. The teachers and staff seem organized and I think the structure of the place works well for my son - he seems to excel with a little accountability. He says "my math teacher is strict but not mean strict." Looking forward to a great rest of the year.
