Carmenita Middle School Reviews

 
This school is riding on the laurels of their community. The school is lucky to be located in a community that values education. There are all sorts of tutorial centers available where a large percentage of students go to learn. The teachers cover information and if the students don't learn then that is too bad. The teachers do not have clear expectations for learning. It is already October and child has yet to write an essay. They assign a lot of busy work, but it lacks rigor and relevance. The administrators float around on artifical flying carpets as if they are actually responsible for student achievement. The school focuses largely on compliance and attendance, there is not true commitment to seeing that students learn.

Carmenita Middle School is a very nice learning place, with disciplinary teachers, counselors, and staff. I go to this school, and its a very nice place to learn. All staff keeps their promise of not breaking any rules for anyone. Though, this school has some flaws. Most teachers don't give out any rubrics or grading scales, which makes it hard for us students to know what our teachers are looking for. Although I think that this school is very good, it should work on how their staff teaches their students.

Nice community, very strict, tons of homework, many classes available

Can not rate new to school this yr.

When teachers don't communicate with each other about homework, students are given so much homework it's ridiculous. My daughter has stayed up many nights until midnight. How is learning taking place, I thought homework is supposed to be a review of what the student learned in class not a lesson that wasn't covered in class. On projects, grades are given but when one asks the teacher how they came up with the grade they can't seem to provide a grading rubric. Or how they came up with that grade.

great school ever everybodey trys their best no school is perfect

The teachers do try their best and the students are very hardworking. There are lots of academic programs such as guided study tutor and such. I believe it is a great place to learn.

Teachers are not held accountable for their grading practices; rubrics and model assignments are not given. Administration makes no effort to change this because few parents complain due to language barriers.

All that stuff about how Carmenita middle school doesn't tolerate bullying is wrong . I know a student (me) who was bullied and still has problems getting over it . the principal and the counsler didn't do anything but put her (me) in a peer group like she (I) was the problem .
