Charles Silvestri Junior High School

My daughter has gone there for the last two years & I absolutely love everything about the school. They effectively deal with any issue in a timely manner. The accelerated program is great plus all the teachers in the accelerated classes will help the kids prosper. I like the fact that all the kids get a chrome book which makes the kids responsible for their homework as well as classwork.

Not good. First off we have to pay to get into a drawing prize which is basically lottery tickets in a school. Most teachers don't seem to have an understanding of rules as they do stuff we cant.

I think that they should stop overacting over shoulders and rips above the knee and actually try to learn some social skills with the students. The studnet counsil actually knows what we like and its pretty cool.

My daughter attends to this school, this is her first year. Since the beginning of the school year she has been frustrated with the school pertaining the staff, even came home in tears. I figured it was a child being a child but I have never experienced this with my daughter with any school. Being a substitute teacher, I decided to guest teach in her school to see the staff for myself and did not tell them that I was her mother and let me tell you there are some horrible attitudes within the staff and I have no clue how and why they want to work in the school district having no social skills especially with children. I have seen teachers and staff talk down to these students, which I do not agree with. I have worked with children for years in and out of the school and I have never spoken to a child in such a manner with disgust and disrespect. Seems that they purposely nitpick on these students. I was just in awe of how immature the staff is. But I have no complaints with the principle, he seems to really care for the students and want them to have a fun learning experience and if he sees there is a personality clash with a student and a teacher, he will switch that student to a different class, though I cannot speak for the rest of the staff. After my experience I have spoken with the principle pertaining my daughter and a teacher, he immediately placed my child in a different class. Since then My daughter loves her teacher and is having a better time.
