This school was not a good fit for my child. There are no lockers, the building is old with narrow hallways and not accessible. Many of the teachers push hard for results and their rigid approach takes the fun out of learning.
My son couldn't imagine going to another middle school. The teachers are creative and engaging. The students share a sense of camaraderie, commitment and pride because, overall, they have chosen to be there.
My daughter loves Rollings! She loves her vocal core and is working hard to get good grades. The teachers are amazing. They really love what they do and the students they work with. It really makes a difference when the teacher wants to be there. Middle school has been such and easy transition from elementary school for her.
I attended Rollings from 2002-2005 and despite basic middle school drama (cliques, bullying, etc.), I loved it. My core was Creative Writing (back when it was still a core!), but the teachers always encouraged us to explore all areas of the arts. Because of this school, I have breezed through writing all of my papers in high school and college, I have had several pieces published, I have cultivated a love for dance, and I am a professional actress. I would say my experience is unique, but my friends who attended here (many of whom I am still friends with!) have had professional success in what were their core areas--some are journalists, some are professional artists, and some are teachers. I now attend the University of South Carolina and STILL spot people wearing Rollings t-shirts around campus every now and then--that's always a conversation starter! Attending Rollings gives people a permanent bond because it is such a unique experience. I would not have traded it for anything. Do whatever you can to get your child into this school, because it will literally change the course of their life.
