Both my children attend Sparrows Point Middle school,. My son is finishing 8th grade and my daughter 6th. Their teachers have been supportive, challenging, fun and encouraging. To see such high standards of care and commitment to the students (and community) has been comforting during a time that can be a difficult transition for our kids. Love SPMS and how successful my kids have been here!

My son is finishing 6th grade here and the transition from elementary school has been very smooth. The staff does a wonderful job communicating with parents through BCPSone and email. The one to one devices for 6th grade have provided some fantastic learning opportunities for the students.

I am very satisfied with the school. My eldest attended and excelled. My youngest struggles a bit more with school and the teachers are always willing to assist and do what ever it takes to motivate him to excel. It is a very small school with very little problems.
