John Early Paideia Middle Magnet

I sent my daughter there despite the rumors. It was worse. I feel sorry for the staff. BUT they do not hold these children accountable for their actions and they are giving that school a bad rep. The student's that actually want to learn are constantly distracted by the disrespect, fighting, and bullying. It is sad. I am currently working on transferring my child. I want her to be great - John Early is not the place for that - not even worth it for its pathway to Hume Fogg.

Hello. And there is a lot of bullying I honestly came just to go to Hume Fogg and I am a 6th grader. I will be leaving this school and then come back for 8th grade year. The teachers are alright shout out to my teacher Mrs. Lockert she is GREAT and AMAZING!!!!!!

I, too, transferred my child here to go to Hume-Fogg. Quite frankly, these kids are better behaved and the teachers are more interested in the kids instead of their iPhones. They need a band program, though. I mean...they have one BUT it's brand new and it's choking out due to a severe lack of parental concern or involvement. Yes...PARENTS...YOU have to contribute, too.Fortunately, most of the kids who went in this year (from our neck of the woods) had already had several years of amazing music instruction and they do have the ability to participate in outside music related organizations. The others seem to be there to get out of class. The director is wonderful - love her - just wish she'd stop trying to be friends with the kids and make these kids live up to their potential.The one big issue I have with this school is the segregation. Sort kids by abilities - not magnet and neighborhood kids. It's not 1964. If people are scared of a little brown rubbing off, then don't go there. Kids are kids. They ALL deserve an education.

We put our child so she could go to Hume-Fogg . The principal is disorganized, doesn't respond or communicate with parents. The parents are frustrated and upset with the u professionalism. Teacher are abusive to the students and it's been going on for years. We took our kids our and there were 7 more parents pulling there kids that month with the same excuse. This is a horrible school.
