I don’t like the school they let racism slide and just tell you to ignore it rather than talk about racism and stopping it

I would give this school an 8 because they made me ready for high school and taught me new life lessons. They also helped me deal with whatever problems I had.

This school has consistently delivered students who improve instead of just "moving on". They deal with students from all levels and somehow make it work! All of my children have gone to Thompson, and I think it the best middle school in the district. Way to go Thompson!

The staff at this school turned my daughters first year of Jr. High from scary to exciting and fun. She was a victim of bullying and I wanted to change her school because the bullies were going to this school. within 2 days the bullying was over and my daughter cant wait to go to school every day. I am forever grateful for the staff at Fred L. Thompson Jr. High and so is my daughter. GREAT SCHOOL
