6TH GRADE UNIT WAS GREAT , EVEN HAVING TO ATTEND PART OF THE YEAR REMOTE THE TEACHERS WERE VERY HELPFUL AND MADE THEMSELVES ACCESSABLE FOR EXTRA HELP AND QUESTIONS EVEN THOUGH NO ONE WAS ACTUALLY IN THE CLASSROOM. 7TH GRADE YEAR SOME OF THE TEACHERS WERE HORRIBLE, THEY MADE IT CLEAR BY THEIR ACTIONS THAT YOU WERE NOT LIKED BY THEM IN THE CLASSROOM OR ON THE SPORTS FIELD. THERE WAS DEFINITIE FAVORTISM WITH THESE TEACHERS (THEY ALL STICK TOGETHER ) . THE COUNSELOR IN THIS BUILDING WAS JUST AS BAD . THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT BULLYING . GLAD MIDDLE SCHOOL IS ALMOST OVER ! I WOULD GIVE ZERO STARS IF THAT WAS AN OPTION .

I found out later budgets cut were to blame for my daughter's 8th grade math class not having a textbook. She was also new at the school. Things got better throughout the rest of the year as she got organized.

Honestly, KMS is an above average middle school. As a family who has moved several times due to work requirements we've dealt with enough to know. The teachers are great at their jobs (which is not to completely raise your children, that's your job). The kids seem good natured for the most part, which is all you can ask for. B+ overall for KMS.

I think that since kettering city schools has taken on the challenge to not hold their teachers responsible for all of the levels of students, it has really gone into the abyss. teachers are keeping themselves un accessible, or are giving the students that impression. you try to ask for help, and get your head bitten off. you try to collaborate for a better education for your child, and they have the appearances of taking it out on the student for questioning them. they take elective surgeries leaving the students to substitutes, who have little or no care as to what the kids learn. the teachers like to teach with handouts, no explanations, and no questions asked. they give little to no time to take a test, and unlike the AP teachers at the high schools, rank their tests in progress book in ways to tank a students grades. The KMS teachers have an over inflated ego of their importance. What the Kettering School district has forgotten or more in my opinion does not care, is that the students are parents are their customers. If they were held to some kind of standard (which they are not) then maybe they would have better rankings. they take care of their own, and to you know where ...
