This school is filled with bullies. My son has been there for 2 years and has been bullied almost every single day. Teachers principals you name it none of them care. The principals are the biggest bullies of all not listening to what my son has had to say. They ask him to tell someone what happens and when he tries they literally tell him to write them a note and never get back to him. I've called countless times and they do nothing to address any of the matters. I have even had children yell at me while picking up my son, this school is simply the worst!

I have two kids at Reynolds, and they love the school, the teachers, and the classes (I asked them!). While I was dealing with an extended illness, the teachers were stellar in keeping the kids on track and the family in the loop. The teachers have high expectations, but are very accessible, and provide the students with many tools for success. There is zero tolerance for bullying. The middle school is beside the high school, and they work well together. There is a strong emphasis on college prep. The athletic and music programs are also great. The new principal (2012-13) seems a good fit. I highly recommend AC Reynolds Middle School.

Im a student at this school and all they worrie about is the disciplain.. you cant look, talk, sneeze, cough.. or do anything at this school without getting a note sent home or a school wide or even ISS.. i would NOT reccomend this school for anyone.

This school is run like a boot camp. Their main focus is on discipline rather than teaching. The principal does not listen to what the parents have to say, or his students. This school zaps the motivation to want to learn with its heavy focus on over-discipline. Thus, creating a very negative environment. Pick another school with a more evolved principal.
