This experience has been horrific. Not only will my child not be going back, we are moving! RUN FROM THIS PLACE.

Good Middle School bringing together young adults from various Elementary Schools in different parts of Atlanta at a crucial age where they are testing daily. The teachers are dedicated and offer many opportunities for the students to do well in their classes offering extra time outside of class if the student is willing to put the time in. Sutton is a good example of the diversity of the real world and shows students what it is like to work together in groups in their classes on a daily basis. The Administration consistently communicates with parents and students on discipline actions and the school offers class assembly gatherings where students learn about things outside of the classroom as well. This school is striving to prepare the students for High School and we believe our 8th grader is well prepared. The Sports, Clubs, and Activities and Sutton are exceptional!

This is our family's 4th yr at sutton. I was surprised at what an easy transition from elementray to middle school my kids had both socially and academically at Sutton. The vast number of sports and clubs offered really allows each student to find their niche. Now that I also have a high school student I've been able to see that he was prepared for the rigor of high school.

To blame administration for two faculty deaths is unfair, cruel, and classless. The families and friends of the deceased would be INCENSED if they knew their loved ones' deaths were being used in this manner. Sutton's current administration, along with its GoTeam, have worked and are working to hire elite teachers who will implement IB/MYP with fidelity and without complaint. Principal Johnson did inherit many staff members who simply refuse to comply with MYP implementation. Transportation is a nightmare, but, Community, where are you? Step up and help us put pressure on APS Transportation so that each campus has its own set of buses. There are fantastic things happening at Sutton Middle School every day. We offer a robust athletic program, myriad clubs, sensational arts instruction, and, with a few exceptions, challenging and engaging classroom instruction. Come and visit!
