Ridley Middle School

I would never send another child of mine to this school!!

I would saw five stars because I go there and I have learned a lot even though it’s only been four weeks. It’s easy to get to classes, the teachers are great, overall I think the school deserves some sort of credit. It’s a great place to learn and have fun.

My years at Ridley Middle Schook have been some of the best times of my life. I met my closest friends there, learned valuable social skills, and have become better as a person, outside of the academics. The only thing I would change about RMS is the amount of homework that some teachers give, and this is not because I dislike homework. It just gets so stressful at times when due dates for certain assignments from one class is the same as another and we do have planners, but some do not use them at all. Also, when one is absent from school for whatever reason, for some classes I've personally had it was very difficult to catch up. It has caused me a great amount of stress, even though I am a really smart and usually calm person.Other than that, it was sort of a personal issue anyway, I got better and am getting great grades this year. The teahers are nice and the school has a great atmosphere to it.

The teachers care about the students and the principal is always available when you need to speak with him. However, my child suffers from mild ADHD, diagnosed by a medical professional. I have been trying to get him assistance, however because he is highly functional I have been unable to get him the assistance from which he could benefit. The school psychologist went so far as to say that she doesn't believe he really has ADHD. There is not really an opening for parental involvement.
