Found this school online and looked at stats, what they offered , read some reviews and saw the…read moreclass sizes. JMPS sounded like exactly what our son needed. Other schools had passed him even though he had not done the assignments. This made it even more difficult to go forward and he was getting pretty frustrated. In addition there were too many kids at the public schools and lots of behavior issues with all the kids so he was totally distracted . Once he started at JMPS he immediately liked the teaching staff as they were much more helpful than he was used to and he noticed that all the kids were pretty nice. He came home and was actually doing homework again and we were very happy with how much encouragement he received all throughout the year. The school is more traditional based with students wearing Uniforms which seem to keep all the kids less distracted and not focused on what they wear. We hope to keep our son at this school where we think he will get a much better education and a good overall high school experience.

Everyone from our school was blown away....well done kids!

The homework is substantial, the tests and quizzes are challenging, and the teachers expect a lot from the kids. It's not easy to get into this school (lottery and waiting lists) but it's every bit worth the effort. My kids will both graduate from here probably more capable than I was when I graduated college. The teachers are available virtually ANY time for tutoring, and the staff and parents group are both above excellent. Glad I found this school, and you will be too.

Full disclosure: This review is strictly about the school's tennis courts, NOT its educational…read moresystem! This HS is my favorite spot for some tennis action! There are 8 well maintained tennis courts that light up with a push of a button at dusk. A few lights are not working properly at the moment, so a couple courts are not well lit; hence the 4 star review...but once this is fixed, 5 stars baby!! The courts are for school use during school hours, but allows for public use when the kids are done with school! Nothing better than free & fun tennis!!!

This review only pertains to McClintock HS's tennis courts…read more The courts are open to the public (after regular school hours)... and they are in terrific condition! Parking is located immediately adjacent to the courts... and the courts are well-lit until 10:30pm! This means that you can play tennis to your heart's desire!

He then proceeded to assault her again after hand. Still NOTHING WAS DONE! If a student is speaking up LISTEN and take the accusation seriously! This is how we prevent further incidents to happen! This is not the first time I have heard that things have been brought up to the office or principal and nothing was done! This is highly unprofessional and highly inappropriate as nothing is being done to protect the kids! The kids safety is priority and it's obvious that this so called "principle" DOES NOT CARE! If nothing is taken care of this issue will be brought up to the school district!

I made contact with her guidance counselor and also worked closely with the social worker and behavioral interventionist. The school (administrative staff) and teachers were sensitive to our issues and worked closely with us to keep my daughter on track.

I hear other parents talk down about their school district, but I have to say I have had the opposite experience. Thank you to the SUSD!

This school used to be the top rated school in TSD. However, the principal Amy Bemis is driving it…read moreinto the ground. After she was hired, half of the staff left. I decided to keep my son enrolled after a teacher friend said he should be fine. That was a mistake. A student who bullied my son for three years threatened my son's life and Amy decided it was appropriate to offer my son one solution - mediation. This was after I informed her of the bullying for three year, which she magically "forgot." She thought it was appropriate that after someone threatens to kill my son to try to teach him "it's okay, let's work it out." When I brought up issues, she'd tell me "I didn't bring them up right after they happened so she won't do anything" in front of her boss, who was kind enough to agree that parents can bring up issues when they feel it's appropriate. If you do enroll your child here, Amy forgets everything, so I strongly recommend you keep an email record as proof. On top of that, when I brought my minority husband in to discuss issues, Amy gave him the nastiest looks which we both witnessed but kept quiet about. When bringing up these issues to the district, they didn't care. This experience was so bad for my family we're now leaving the public education realm and will be going to a charter school.

Is it a solid 5 I would say, so here's why: 1.Mandatory parent participation and volunteer hours(forces you to be more involved in the school) 2. A+ rated ( better than not being rated right?) 3. Activities at school during the school year like a Fun Run to raise money, Water day where there is outside stations and parent volunteers, Trunk or treat hosted by the staff and parents with a DJ and food Trucks, In Class plays where parents could come watch and record (pre-covid) 4. Teachers like Mrs.Stevenson and Mrs.Lombardi kind hearted caring and eager to teach. Are there some things I would change yes, any school has things that need to be improved but overall this is a great school if public school is the route you take
