The principal and VP have not principles. They only care about themselves, and they do NOTHING to inspire hope and success. They are dormant to the problems that exist at the school, especially given that it is an interim "place" between lower middle school and the HS. The faculty are generally good, but some are pompous; some are no where to be seen; and some are awesome. Quite an unfortunate mix. If any faculty member complains, s/he gets reprimanded for telling the truth. Yes, I agree; this is NOT a school ... it is a prison for the good and a haven for the bad.

Not the right school if your child has any type of special needs. Racially insensitive environment, bullying is rampant, ineffective administration and leadership that rest on test scores to make them a "great school." School leadership is out of touch.

Terrible oppressive place. Feels like prison, and kids come out of there beat fown and hardened. Administration acts like it hates the kids. Bullying is rampant but no one cares. No effort to reach out to troubled students. Kids going into therapy, yhe psych ward, expelled, suspended are excessive. We have had 3 school threats that required police involvement. Principal and vice principal should be fired.

Marblehead Middle School is a great school if your child performs at the average or above average level. Special Education is antiquated and the director is unavailable. They have lost so many hearings at the state level - and what that tells you is that if you can afford an attorney - you are going to need one who specializes in special education.
