I was in Fights a lot Either high schoolers coming by after school to get there Sisters/Brothers. Or from problems thru the day. after a wile I started staying after and working with the janitors Mr Kneecamp , Viccy My teachers were Mrs Degger, Mrs Molod hmmm now I can't seam to remember my homeroom teacher. Anyhow being I learned mostly from Encyclopedias and as they got updated so did what I learned transferring that into doing math work for instance the teacher would have her way and I would have mine doing it my way I got the ansers right but when I tried there way I got them wrong so I would fail at it both ways for either not doing it there way and showing the work how they want or I just couldent do there work proper like because I already learned another way and idk it was always like I thought they forgot a step or something. But if it weren't for the cleaning staff there at night I prolly woulda stayed getting into fights everyday. if it wasn't for Mrs Molod , Mrs Deggar I woulda never cought on to any of the schooling. Now being here in NY I see that Mad river Middle's 7th grade has more advanced arithmetic, Library books, Social Studies ,Geography and teaching methods then my kids are taking here at all and my oldest is a Sr here at Jamestown High School its sad. I left to be near family but I should have come back for my kids to attend school.

This is my third daughter going to school in Mad River. If you asked me before to review this school I would of had nothing but good things to say. But my youngest is special needs child and it is my opinion that they can not handle special needs children. She needs a smaller class setting and they do not have that so the way to handle it for them is she only goes 3 hours a day. She is in my opinion loosing out. It is not her fault that she can not handle a regular class setting. I do believe that the overall staff is a good quality. But they are just not equipped to handle student such as my daughter.

My daughter is currently enrolled in the mad river district and I find that they work hard to meet the needs of all of their students with a variety of options and an open forum in which I am able to directly participate. I attended the district from K-12 receiving an excellent education and look forward to see my child receive the same opportunity. Parents have ample opportunity to become involved with their child and school, they just have to say yes, makes it easy and fun!

Until Middle School my child had not issues. My child attended Mad River Schools from Kinderrgarten on. MRMS staff seem to care little about students, their success, or grades. They also lack in communication skills. I would not suggest MRMS to anyone wanting a decent education for their child.
