Here’s the revised review in a cohesive format:I attended Dailey Middle School for a long time, and I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking to avoid fights or drama. While the school provides opportunities for learning, not many students seem to enjoy it. Most of the teachers are nice and genuinely want to help students succeed, though some can be strict or come across as mean.The school does offer social-emotional support, but the constant drama can make it hard to feel fully supported. They also provide programs for Special Education students, but unfortunately, bullying still happens, which shouldn’t be normalized even in a middle school environment.When it comes to safety, the staff does their best to stop fights, but the overall atmosphere feels a bit rough and chaotic.Overall, my experience at Dailey Middle School wasn’t great, but others might feel differently.

as a student don't let your kid go to this school someteachers just don't care many. many fights and kids will always talk over the lesson whichmakes it harder to concentrate. if u want your kid to actually learn go to a strict school this helped me learned many things But if you arent a fan of strict school because of the uniformsgo to a high rated school or an academy.

my son James went here and it was the worst experience of my life. he was constantly bullied by the adman pretty much and did not feel happy or safe at this school. any sensible parent would say the same thing.

My worst nightmare no parent should go through this. Schools should be safe for our children.

this school has a lot of involved parents who care about their children's success. I have been impressed by the school administration's responsiveness when issues do come up. the teachers i have interacted with are committed to their students. i have especially bben impressed by the school's science teachers and the program they offer, especially in the preap classes.

I feel that this school has a lot of serious issues that both the students and staff are working toward eliminating. It is definitely a rough environment, but it should be noted that there are some exceptionally bright children there who really need opportunity and support to grow. Sometimes the challenges can be overwhelming, but if the community sticks together I feel that this school could really shine.

This school is worse than anything I have ever experienced. There is no discipline for the kids. The staff is incompetent. The principal is incompetent. Ghetto thug parents let the kids do what they want and so does the school. Del Valle school district is the bottom of the barrel.
