This school is beyond terrible, the administration gives referrals for ridiculous reasons, the school lunches chicken sandwich made children nauseous and some threw up but once other kids reported it to the nurses office, nurses told the students to go back to class because they weren't"feverish", there shouldn't be a school where only the janitors can do their job right. The other reviewers on this website also look like they've had no fun walking into this lazy half done school. Administration has no remorse for the children in this school. Teachers yell at students and make them feel embarrassed, especially the gym teachers. Terrible, HORRIBLE school, lems is more recommended, 1 star.

I had nothing but problems from the school since day 1. The teachers completely disregarded my child's IEP. Repeative office referrals for ridiculous things. We never can we have clear communication. There is absolutely too much "he said, she said". If possible just go to a different school Don't waste your time. Until the school is better about applying diversity and equality, they will continue to have issues.

My experience at this school was horrible, I only had one good teacher the whole year the others didn’t really seem to care about there students. I was bullied and harassed multiple times, when I reported it to the principle he didn’t seem to care an never addressed it.

As a former student of Stover Middle School, I have nothing good to say about the place. The sanitation in the school is subpar, with roach carcasses clearly visible in ceiling lights, and the competency of the staff is rather poor. Teachers are generally either disinterested or negative about their job, with a few star exceptions, and they largely rely on control tactics to keep their students orderly. They tend to become very frustrated and resort to yelling incessantly at their students, often adopting unsavory attitudes toward them. My sincerest hope is that the few good teachers here find new jobs in better schools.

We love this school. Our three children all attended and learned much with the careful attention of several teachers. Administration was quick to assist if any issues ever arose. Highly recommended Stover.
