I’m really happy my son was able to join the engineering class. I feel confident that Margate middle has prepared him for ninth grade and moving forward.

Margate Middle has a lot to offer students. The STEM program is good and students get to work in groups and present to family and friends. They have fun parent nights like Curriculum Carnival and High School - Preparing for success and much more! Stop by and visit to learn more about what they have to offer.

Very bad environment and rats / roaches around the school 1/10

So many fights at this school. Cops are always there. Even seen parents fighting kids. Very toxic environment for both students and teachers. Calls of concerns go unanswered. When I withdrew my child they didn't ask why. I asked if they would care to know, she said sure and when I told her why, there wasn't nothing she could do. Like oh well. I feel bad for the students and teachers there.

School is Ok. Some kids talk bad words like nothing. SELECT PLUS AND STEM good programs. Teachers most of the time do not answer emails or calls when you have a question. Teachers sometimes are really mean to kids, instead of encourage most tell kids that they will never accomplish anything in life because they are shy and get nervous to participate in class. Remember not all childrens are equal some are loud and disrespectful and other shy and respect their teachers. They are all measure the same. Some teachers loose KIDS homework and mark F and most of the time never believe parents or kids that they turn in work. Rude. Food in cafeteria is kind of disgusting, not cooked well and employees doesn't care about when kids complain. Hair in food constantly if they complain they received less food and give the next one double of the food. Like punishment. Should change this method of cafeteria. Employees should know to cook and cook clean, safe food every day, every day. It is possible if they start early to cook. Other countries do it every single day! Food is good only for teachers. Kids are important too! Treat them with respect so they can treat you all the same. It is rude and not polite to ignore parents and kids approach in class and cafeteria when there is a concern. I hope this review will help to understand what happens in school. So far no fight that I know and if something start immediately stop by whoever is in charge at the time. Thanks for the opportunity!

I've gone to this school since 6th grade and I didn't want to go because the rumors but I've found out I liked it a lot, the security is really strict which good, cracking down always on dress code violations and also fights (which never seemed to happen) but also note I've been in the select plus program which are all advance classes but still my friends that are in regular classes seemed to do really good and the classes offered really helped me like Spanish 1 & 2,algebra 1, geometry, speech(public speaking), and also debate all which are high school classes which helped me get credits before I was even close to high school. Over all it's a really good school and safe.
