I'm currently in 7th grade at Seminole, and I'm in the DECAL program. I can't speak for kids who aren't in DECAL but I like Seminole, and the teachers are very good and make learning fun. Seminole also has a wide variety of clubs and stuff, and Troupe 88941 and the Drama department are the nicest people you'll find in Seminole!

Administrators are energy vampires and lack the tools the motivate students to want to do better.

Through the COVID 19 Seminole Middle had a strong posture in online learning.

The front office employees are very helpful and the principle is excellent

Id agree their programs are efficient for kids with learning challenges

When reported bullying gets handled and the reporting procedures are known to the students

The staff who is in charge of students with learning differences like autism seemed unqualified. I can tell that these students aren't getting better. If you're a parent with a disabled student, DO NOT take them to Seminole.

Once anyone catches a whiff of bullying, administrators are right on it. If there are bullying problems, it's solved quickly.

I went to Seminole for all three years of middle school. My main disagreement with this school is how they treat DECAL students compared to the average student. DECAL is their advanced program and it seems like students in this program have an unfair amount of better opportunities. In 7th grade, we were all required to take speech and debate. While not everyone loved it, the class was exceptional and taught key skills that everyone should have access to. If you go into the school, it becomes apparent that the majority of Black students are not in DECAL. They seem to do way worse academically and behaviorally. On the other hand in DECAL, there is a diverse set of students that have multiple high school classes within their schedule. Electives are great, and I highly recommend taking any of Ms. Phillip's, Mrs. Alford's, or Mr. Leipzig's classes. All in all, if you're in DECAL, this school is great. But if you're not, your experience is ruined and sabotaged. Seminole needs to fix their attitude towards Black students.

Depending on your teacher and courses, you can get a lot or little. I know a lot of fellow students who have basically little to no homework, yet I always feel like I'm drowning in it.

I can't speak for non- DECAL teachers, but those that I have had are pretty good. I have been able to get comfortable with all my teachers and learning is often fun.

Honestly, I don't think that this school focuses on building students' character. Do one wrong thing and you're just shunned into the kiva during lunch to eat alone like a delinquent. Administrators are constantly handing out referrals or suspensions like it's paper instead of trying to make students into better people. There is a MTL program, but it doesn't seem to be effective. I have friends that were in it, but now they're in high school failing and smoking drugs. I also often see that students who misbehave become friends with security since they seem them so much and are actually never diciplined in an effective way.

My daughter is a 7th grader at Seminole middle. She is in the decal program, which is a program designed for advanced students who need to keep certain GPA and clean conduct record. We are very happy with the school and the teachers. I have no problems communicating with any of them and as a matter of fact they all have webpages and or post the work that is due and communication on Edmodo. The pinnacle is always up to date, so there is no way not to know what is going on if you are an involved parent. My daughter is in various extra curricular activities and she loves the students and the teachers as well. If your child is a good student and have no conduct problems be sure that Seminole is a good choice... I forgot to mention that we feel this is a bully free school!
