Outstanding Middle School - Best Teachers and Staff Around.

School is very accommodating to both students and parents. They give students extra help when needed and offer extra help sessions a few times a month.

This has got to be the most biased scoring I have ever seen. My 4 son's have attended a; Somers schools. The schools are beautiful, new, great teaches, and motivated student body. Most 99% go on to college. This report is so off base.

The staff and administrators have continuously shown their commitment to improving student outcomes in all subjects. They support students who need extra help, provide opportunities to learn in different ways and make children feel empowered to make choices in their learning.

Good. Much better than the "rating" would suggest. I'm not clear why the rating is as low as it is. I think it is outdated. I know the Middle School had a rough patch a few years back, but this admin is engaged, the students motivated. Active sports programs and after school clubs. If I have concerns they would be around classroom resources. I have a general concern that public schools play catch-up with the outside, that they are generally under-funded and teachers underpaid. In short, we don't invest enough. Forget crazy tax cuts. We need tax investment. As for SMS, this is not in my opinion a "5" school. It's an "8" with a real ability to make it to 9 or 10.
