Overall above average. I am a former student and current lunch buddy. The students seem happy and there is a wide spectrum of course offerings available for students at all levels. I encourage local parents to be involved and proactive in their children's education. This improves classroom discipline, respect, and peer behavior tremendously!

My daughter currently goes to this school and so far has been nothing but horrible. She has been bullied on 5 different occasions by the same child. The principal and assistant principal suspend the child responsible for 2 days and then the child comes back and continues to bully my daughter. The cops and news station are being informed about this situation. My child should feel safe at school.Yet she goes there in fear.TIME TO TAKE A STAND!!!!!!!!!!

The faculty at this school is horrible. There is a huge lack of leadership and addressing issues. This school needs to focus more on how to gain control of the bullying and reinforcing guidelines for the students AND the parents. I bought my house in Jamestown so that my children could have a great learning environment. The score for JMS was an 8 at the time. At the rate that they are going, the school will be a 4 before we know it. Its a shame.

I can't believe how much bullying goes on at this school!! I'm VERY disappointed in the way,the principle handles things. There are a lot of good teachers, but I'm really thinking about taking my kids out!!

The race statistics are not even close as they show a pretty even match between white and black. My child just started and let me tell you thats not even close all of his classes are mostly black. Every class has less than 5 students that are white and some less. I was looking for a good balance and this is not it. Many kids are bused from other districts causing this issue. We are also hearing this from other parents so are sure this is the case throughout most classes. As for teachers and the school we are happy BUT not the environment we were hoping for. Probably will make a change because of this reason. Dont get me wrong i'm not bashing the school as its new and i think the staff is working hard to make things as positive as possible. However, parents should be aware of this issue.
