    I never really give bad reviews but this school sucks. If you bought an expensive house just to be…read morezoned to this middle school thinking this is one of the top schools in Moco? Think again. The kids are all ratchet, bullying is through the roof. The staff can't really do anything because that have to follow a "code of conduct " giving students slaps on the wrist as punishments. I'm not even mad at the staff, if you can't do something because that what your boss says then that is what it is. My kid was transferred from Gaithersburg Middle School to here in 6th grade because that school was too crazy. (Fights everyday) to Rocky Hills, which is like fights every other week. I guess that's what happens when you move to a better neighborhood. Less reoccurrence of fights and kids getting jumped but it's still happening. Kids smoking weed pens in the bathroom or vapes. If your kid goes here? Talk to your child, seriously. Make sure they are mentally "ok". This school has changed my kid because the girls are like animals, they will "size you up" and try you. Fight you, and they group together to jump you. I have been up to the school multiple occasions, they know who I am. The board of education needs to come to every school in Moco and see what's happening. If it's happening here? In other schools too!

    Why in the world would I let my child go to this school, when his local school is right down the…read morestreet! Crazy! So MCPS builds this school with our tax dollars and not enough children to attend the school, therefore they changed the boundary. Plus, their is always discrimination issues on the news.

    My family has deep roots at Barnesville School of Arts & Sciences. My now 33-year-old son attended…read morefrom 2nd through 8th grade, and today my 12-year-old grandson is a student there. We also enrolled three additional children just last year. Having experienced the school across generations, I can say with confidence that Barnesville has remained true to something very special. I have been so impressed with Barnesville's ability to preserve its unique character while continuing to grow and evolve. In a time when so many schools feel increasingly standardized, Barnesville still feels deeply personal, intentional, and rooted in a genuine love of learning and childhood. There is a warmth to the community that is hard to describe but immediately felt. The teachers truly know and care about each child--not just academically, but as whole individuals. That kind of attention creates confident, curious, and kind students. What stands out most to me is the balance the school achieves: strong academics paired with creativity, structure alongside freedom, and a respect for tradition without feeling outdated. It is rare to find a place that nurtures both the intellect and the spirit of a child so thoughtfully. For our family, Barnesville is more than a school--it's part of our story. We are incredibly grateful to be back and to see the same values and magic still alive for the next generation.

    Teacher turnover is high. Administration lacks experience and is not professional…read more Academics are lacking. We were there from 4th -8th. If had it to do over again definitely not ok for middle school. One middle school teacher never graded work and when asked handed me a folder of four papers nothing graded. They let in many kids with issues without having the proper counseling. Language teachers were some of the worst my child ever had.
