I'm not saying any names but one of my female teachers when in the boys bathroom and another one teaches sometimes but not all of the time. Every year the food keeps on getting worse and worse. On the buses, in the bathroom, and sometimes even in the classroom it can smell really bad. At lunch the teachers gossip about other students. There are a lot of other bad thing but i can't think of them right now so that's all I have to say for now

WJMS has the best Principal along with a fabulous staff. The school could use the money for basic supplies. It's pretty sad when students are asked to bring a ream of copy paper as part of their back to school supply list.

I attended this school three years ago and now my younger brother also attends this school.It helped me to become very successful in high school. The teachers are highly educated and the atmosphere is very positive. Since I left the school I have only heard positive things about the teachers from my brother.

This school seems decent, however compared to the private middle school it does not compare. Academically the students here are way behind and are not pushed to achieve what they are capable to do. The school, as most schools are, is very cliquey. you will find this problem at many schools, however if you want to avoid this go to the private school (Bulloch Academy) if you can afford it. Athletics wise, WJMS has good teams, however I'm not sure that the programs encourage and allow all students as other schools' programs do.
