Stephen Mack Middle School

Good so far. Going into 7th grade. Great programs offered and hope my son will expand on those this next year.

Stephen Mack is great! The staff is amazing! Safety is a key thing for Stephen Mack students and teachers. 6th through 8th grade.

I am an 8th grade student at SMMS, and have gone through all three years here. the staff is amazing, never putting forth anything but 110%. The administration is even better, working tirelessly for the benefit of the students. Below, I read " the Principal is abrasive and I have seen her roll her eyes at students on many occasions which I feel is very inappropriate". This is not true. the principal is by far the best I've ever had, and I've gone through three diffident districts. She personally knows each and every student and would never do anything of this nature. She is always present at school, always helping. As far as the staff, I know for a fact that all of them love her very much, and share my opinion. Just to give you an idea of how much we all love her, during assemblies she will walk up to the microphone to begin. when she dose this, the whole school is instantly quiet and attentive. no one asked us to do this, but we do every time. we show her the most respect and love, and she gives it right back. She is the backbone of this school, and an exceptional principal. Test scores and personal opinions alike will tell you that SMMS is by far the best school in the state.

We started 2 1/2 years ago. I've had 3 children attend SMMS so far. This is how I see it: Excellent administration, excellent teachers and support staff ( with only a couple exceptions), excellent building structure and classroom setup, great kids attending (not at all like the Rockford peers my kids had to put up with for years), they're not asking for donations at every turn ( only about twice a year), and a friendly environment all in all. These teachers really go the mile for their students...you can feel the love.
