Hi, I am a student at fms I love going to school I wake up I wanna go to school on school break I wish I was at school because I love seeing my teachers and friends but it is really hard most of the time u Can get judged very easy just because of how u look or how u dress and there are awesome people at the school its good when I know that if I need help I can go to Mrs. Fluker and talk to her about it or I can ALLWAYS have fun learning math with Trent but what I do not like about the school is that they don't look into a thing when i get serious in my upion but there was a student that had said I did something that I didn't add they put me in is for I long while I will admit I can do some not right things some times but what the kid said was not true and I got in a lot of trouble for it when I should not have and it's not just once or twice that this happens It happens pretty often bad things happen pretty often to the point my parents might have to home school so they don't have to deal with this so if you are wondering if you should put your kid in fms in my perspective you should notlearning is fun with the right people and environment- 8/10 fitting in can be hard with the right people but even those people can be pushy- 5/10 admin stopping problems if you report it-5/10 having fun at school-6 1/2-10 being supported by teachers/admin- 8/10 being supported by the students- 4/10being safe-7/10 all because it wouldn't be great sometimes but it can also be really bad especially when you're doing good and they bring up bad things you've done or judge you because you don't have the best grades 2/5 stars

I really enjoyed my time at FMS. I know that most people think that Middle School can be a tough time, but FMS makes that time a little bit easier. The teachers are phenomenal! They really do care. There is not a ton of just online work, and the teachers really do teach. They do a great job of integrating technology into the classroom, but still giving an education. The Math department is amazing, especially the Algebra/Geometry teacher, Mr. Fitch. He is the best teacher I have ever had, and if you have a chance to get him, you are extremely blessed. Overall, if you are considering sending your child to FMS, do it. You will not regret it.

My daughter has has a wonderful 6th grade year. The teachers are wonderful and so are the kids. My daughter has not only excelled academically, but socially as well. We love this school!

Why can't teachers teach?!? It is all google classroom. My son would get more of an education with an on line correspondence course. Glad it is alomost over.

I Love FMS and I might be leaving after my 7th grade year, everyone at FMS is just so caring. The teachers there are just so warming and they open there arms to you. I'm going to miss FMS surely, every student there was unique in there own way. It's going to be hard to go to another school.,
