Haven't been terribly pleased with the staff at the school. There are a select few that stand out but overall the feeling of the school is generic & impersonal. Wish they were a bit more organized & efficient. The Principle does seem to make efforts to engage & be proactive but if the rest of the staff doesn't comply what good is it?

The North Middle School administration and staff make the school an open and welcome environment. The administration and staff care deeply about every students education and take extra steps and measures in order to make them successful. From my experience, almost all of the staff at North are always happy to be there for the students.

North Middle School is an excellent and fun school to be at. The staff are very caring of every students education and always help them become successful. The campus is fairly nice looking and has much to offer. There are also Orchestra, Choir, and Band programs that make this district one of the best to be in. The only downside is that some teachers are very grumpy (7th grade only, really). Overall, this school is a wonderful school, and I will sincerely miss this school as I move on to Grants Pass High School.

My son started North this year under the complete understanding that we are in Grants Pass on a temporary basis while my husband is deployed. My son has had four surgeries on his ears in the past six months and his hearing is not quite the same due to a congenital defect. My issue with the school is that they won't even give me the time of day when it comes to finding someone to discuss this with. My child can't hear. He has issues hearing the bell, and they think that in school suspension is the best way to proceed for him being tardy a few seconds to class. I disagree. There was also an issue with a PE teacher. My son's little flip phone fell out of his locker. He grabbed it, and the PE teacher confiscated it. I have no problem with that, but instead of bringing the phone to the office after school, I spent an hour there trying to locate it because instead of having some courtesy for MY time, he chose to take it to football practice with him. Not only that, but another child stated "well, he lets us use our phones." The other child is a football player. Because my son isn't, I feel like he was treated unfairly. I am absolutely thrilled that we are moving.

This school is probably not much different than most middle schools. My child stated that she was bullied often and counselors just didn't have time to talk. I was disappointed in some of the teachers attitudes, but many of the other teachers were fabulous. I prefer that my child does not go back to this school. It seems to be very "clickish" which seems to be where bullying can happen.
