Luna Middle School

Posted: June 24, 2026

I went to this school. In my experience I had witnessed many things shooting threats, bomb threats, and so much more. This school is absolutely awful in my opinion. I had a teacher once yell. “I hate this class!” This school with mental health they say they’ve “done better,” but I don’t believe it at all. Students tend to bully a lot not to mention. I was bullied my entire time there, and I spoke up about it before. They did nothing to help out. If your kid is popular you’ll be fine they don’t get targeted from what I’ve seen. Now another thing, there’s been times when I felt so uncomfortable at that school that I’d cry in class. The ALE classrooms were the only people I saw that truly accommodated students. This is coming from a student who was in the club “Friends Having Fun Club!” They treated the kids good. But, overall if you want your kid going here you do you. This is just my experience being there for all three years.

Hey just letting you know whoever comes to this school better know something’s. The bullying policy ain’t inforced, so get ready to get picked on a lot. Some teachers can be considered mean and make inappropriate jokes about students. Wanna try out for sports? To bad there is favoritism in there. One time went to soccer tryouts and there was the kids that was gone the two out of three days of tryouts, but he was very close to the coach. Somehow with only one day to impress them he made the team. That’s not it, the coaches who said that if you miss more than one practice, you automatically can’t make the team anymore. So yea to anyone who is reading this, watch out in this school

My kids would have been treated and learned more from a cracker-jack's box. If you can please send your kids some where else, otherwise you will be greatly disappointed and need a couple years supply of Rolaids or Tums to deal with the stress the administration and teachers will cause you.

Posted: August 18, 2019

Kids are told to watch a video, sen home with work that is graded the next day with zero student/teacher review...What happen to actually teaching kids?

Posted: August 18, 2019

The majority of the teachers in this school should not be allowed near children. The jump to conclusions and could careless what kids have to say. If they form an uneducated conclusion about a kid the kid is treated without respect. Above the teachers are the ineffective and pathetic administrations...Hope no parent needs their help because you will not get it.

Posted: August 18, 2019

The teachers do not care what the students have to say, so all this school teaches kids is to ignore and disrespect adults....what a wonderful characteristic to teach kids.

Posted: August 18, 2019

Ineffective and pathetic administrations...Hope no parent needs their help because you will not get it. You have to threaten to go to the new media for them to even care.

Posted: August 18, 2019

God help your child if they have a 504 plan... you have to threaten legal action to get them to honor them...and even then they sometimes do not work.

Posted: August 18, 2019

How can the administration and/or teachers deal with bullying if they are bullies themselves. They do nothing to kids that bully and when a kid finally has enough and stands up for themselves the schools wants to do nothing, but defend the bully. Wonderful ay to show if you do wrong you will be rewarded.

Posted: June 6, 2019

The PREAP Art teacher is a bully she calls the kids names and degrades them in front of their peers and thinks it okay.

Posted: June 6, 2019

There is no leadership at this school that offers character building none from the Administration all the way to the Coaches. All they do here is yell, cuss and belittle the students.

Posted: June 6, 2019

Administration does nothing to the teachers that bully the kids. The kids are the ones that get unjustly punished.

Posted: June 6, 2019

Posted: June 6, 2019

Principle allows the Coaches and Teachers to cuss and call the kids names. This school is so horrible when it comes to bullying. The kids always get punished but not the staff.

Horrible, Horrible, Horrible, Horrible, Horrible, Horrible, Horrible.

Disengaged and they have no support from admin.

Posted: June 4, 2019

Too much bullying and fighting and not held accountable.

Posted: June 4, 2019

Admin is more concerned with being the students friend than instilling ethics. Students curse, steal, and fight on a daily basis and nothing is done to stop behavior. They need to be held responsible for their actions.

Posted: June 4, 2019

Students not held accountable so behavior continues.

I understand why charter schools are growing and NISD is losing attendance.

It is our first year at LMS and it has been a rough time for our kids. Teachers don't have control over the students. Students cussing in front of teachers and don't do anything. Coaches cussing out the kids etc... Bullying is clearly one main concern for us at this school. Academically, there is another problem. Band class is chaos! We still have hope that this school has something positive to offer our kids.

Yes....they do. I son had a situation occur last year and it was handled professionally and delicately.

Posted: March 27, 2017

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with this topic, however, I don't doubt that they are effective in supporting students with learning differences.

Posted: March 27, 2017

Extremely effective. They are great role models.

Posted: March 27, 2017

Yes, they do. They ensure their students demonstrate great values, respect for each other, and integrity in all that they do.

Posted: March 27, 2017

They go above and beyond their duties to ensure their students pass. You can reach out to them in many ways and they ALWAYS get back to you.

Posted: March 27, 2017

There is no reason why a student should be failing with all the help and tutoring sessions teachers have at this school. They are always willing to work with you and your child and my experience has always been great.

Posted: March 27, 2017

I LOVE this school and the staff. My son is in the 7th grade and I have not met a teacher of his yet that I don't like. They are the best with working with students. With their dedication and love to help students, my son continues to grow as a student and a hard working young man.

There is such a wide variety of classes, activities, clubs, and extra curricular events for students at this school! Teachers truly care about their students and want them to succeed to the best of their ability.

I am a student at luna and it is so awesome there are so many great things there and there this girl who is very unathletic and during P.E the popular girls started cheering her on it was sweet

Posted: February 12, 2015

The negative reviews make me sad. My daughter loves Luna. All of her teachers are devoted, excellent teachers. She has flourished in academics and socially. She is active in choir and the program is very well run. I've watched a shy, scared girl entering middle school become an happy, well adapted young lady. That is a reflection of well run school full of amazing teachers.

Posted: May 21, 2014

Luna Middle School has been a fantastic educational experience for our children. The teachers strive to give the children multiple learning activities. The administration undoubtedly supports the teachers, and the band and sports programs are top notch. Unfortunately, more upset parents are leaving reviews for Luna, so the reviews might seem low. Upset parents usually try and find a way to voice their concern while happy/satisfied parents don't express their gratitude enough. I urge you to visit with some of the parents in the area to find out the truth.

Posted: March 10, 2014

Do not, listen to me do not!! Bring your kids to this school unless you want to hear them complaint all year long that they hate that school. We moved a lot on the past 8 years and I never heard my son complaint about any school my sister was moving to San Antonio and she stayed in my house until she got hers and my niece hated this school as well my sister end up looking for a house on the north side so she won't have to be in this school district. I'm glad this school year is almost over!

Posted: December 19, 2013

I regret living in this school district because of Luna. My daughter is bullied,harrassed and a student told one of the NISD officers that my daughter is causing harm to herself(She is not) and that brought a visit from the Sheriffs office to our house to check on her welfare. This school lacks leadership at the most rudimentary level and the students are treated like garbage. I have given up on this school and am looking to move out of the area, its that bad. If you can avoid sending your child here, please do. I have never been more disgusted with a school in my adult life.

Meet the principle night was basically a "This is how I run my ship. Like it or not, I don't care.", speech!! My son is participating in one afternoon club. There was miscommunication on what time he got out. I showed up at the agreed upon time only to find him crying and walking around the front of the school by himself. Turns out I was 25 mins late picking him up. There was no teacher/club leader there with him. He was just left there by himself. He does not have his own cell phone. The teacher did not offer one for him to use, nor did he ask. We handled that and he knows what to do now and I know what time to pick him up but importantly, the doors to the school are on lockdown at 4 pm and NO ONE answers the phones. The teachers for the club just left him there!!! For no one to even offer their phone or take him inside to the office to use the one in there was hideously neglectful. There is a reason this school is only a "Recognized" school and not "Exemplary"! If you don't have to send your son or daughter there, don't! There is absolutely no discipline in this school whatsoever with the students or some of the staff.

Posted: November 2, 2013

Luna I have to agree with the majority of the reviews post on here. The principal is lousy and out of touch and on top of that she is always out of the building. Had and issue with a teacher who wasn't helpful and neither was the principal in trying to sort out this problem. Now not all of the teachers are bad...It seems to me the the problem is more with the principal and admin staff. The staff is supposed to ensure that the children succeed and do well. We as parents are supposed to be involved in our children's education which is very hard to do when you are dealing with a principal who is (as one reviewer) put it a dictator. In my dealing with her she wasn't helpful nor was she listening or trying to understand what the problem was. I can't see you being a principal if you are not a people person, understanding, caring or patient it just doesn't go with the job.

Posted: October 21, 2013

Luna is a school that looks nice from the outside but bad on the inside. My child was bullied at school and on the bus. The Vice Principal did what he could, but it was not enough. I withdrew my child. My take on Luna is due to the growth in SA, the student population has increased and educators must make a choice, try to control the students in class or in the halls or bus, but they can't choose to do all. I would like to see data on only this 5% mentioned in earlier post, it must be higher. Your kids may flourish in this school, mine did not, As a parent do your children a favor and go visit any school before enrolling, monitor the activity in the hall when classes rotate, see the behavior on the bus, ask other kids. Do not rely on the state tests scores to make your choice on your child s education. My child is forever scared because of Luna, and I bet they could not care less.

Posted: September 22, 2013

Luna is horrible. I had to pull my oldest son out last year because the staff REFUSES to address the bullying problem. Now this year I have two there both getting bullied. When you express your concerns they twist it to sound like it's not that bad, then sweep it under the rug. All they're worried about is the schools reputation, not the welfare of the children. Two thumbs down!!!

Great Athletics program with many achievements and great athletes that go here. great football, volleyball, track, golf and tennis teams.

FYI- A majority of the people who post negative comments about a faculty administration that work endless hours and truly care about the kids know nothing about integrity. Educators have to work with every student (and parent) who all have different expectations, abilities, lifestyles, socioeconomic status and beliefs. Walk one day in the shoes of an educator, especially at the middle school level, and you will be quick to change your complaints to compliments. Luna, like all schools in Northside, have employees who devote their lives to the families they serve. Next time you wish to degrade teachers who spend 8-10 hours of every day with your student (especially when you can do so behind the safety of a computer, examine how much effort you are putting forth. If you are to stubborn to recognize how much teachers give of themselves for mediocre pay, then home school. A majority of the problems that arise in schools are from less than 5% of the student body; I can assure the negative postings on this page are in that 5%. You should be ashamed.

This school is far worse than any other school my children have ever attended. Unless your child is aggressive and bullies others they will not be happy at this school. I have never come across a school administrator that actually tried to blame the victim for being bullied. (Speech disorder) I have heard countless other parents and students who have recounted their bizarre interactions with this administration. I have never had issues with any other school but I have had several issues with this school that has left me feeling like I'm on candid camera due to the ridiculous attitude towards me. Rudeness does not begin to explain. I have since switched my kids schools and they are happy and excelling in all academics. I have witnessed first hand the remarkable difference switching to a better school has made.

Posted: March 30, 2013

Amazing attitude toward learning. The teachers do not tolerate missing work or failing grades. Instead, they make sure students know the material and turn in work!

Posted: October 29, 2012

This is a horrible school ..out of 5 schools we have been to thru moving in the military this is the worst school ever!!! The faculty do not have any respect for their students or the parents! Their rules are ridiculous. My kids have never had trouble in any other school and they are straight A students and here their grades dropped and they received referrals and dispersions for pretty much nothing. Avoid this school if possible. Look up reviews it's horrible.

Posted: October 29, 2012

Luna MS is the worse school ever. The teachers and Faculty are bullies. They call your children liars and the parents too!!! Horrible year here. We litterally Had to MOVE so that we can get in another school district. this was a horrible expiriance. The staff is close minded and DO NOT help the kids succed. I have a over a dozen friends that also their kids have come to this school and ALSO have similar experiances as me. My daughter gets called a liar all the time And I DO NOT appreciate that. and then when I have gone in there, I ALSO get called a liar. that is sad. If it is not their way its the highway. I feel so bad for putting my daughter thru this whole school year. She really was dipressed and came home sad everyday because of the TEACHERS AND FACULTY. AVOID AVOID The teachers, and VP or P. NO ONE will listen to your concerns!

Posted: October 29, 2012

Very bad administration. NO respect for students Nor Parents. I wish my kids were NOT in this school. You get treated horribly.

Posted: October 29, 2012

I would NOT recomend this school to anyone! the faculty is very dificult and RUDE! pretty much its a horrible school. I have 4 kids and have been to 7 schools because of military and this is definetly the worse :( stay away!

Posted: October 9, 2012

I think their rules are ridiculous to say the least. They are not allowed to carry backpacks, not allowed to wear shorts, and not allowed to carry water bottles (not entirely sure of this). My son has ADHD and he lost his binder and several pencils and also has anxiety because he doesn't want ot be late to classes by going to his locker all the time. They only have a short time period between classes. Also, he is not allowed to enter the school again after he has went out the doors unless he has a parent? They have enough to worry about at school and at home, and it is not helping him be successful at school if he ends up losing things or other students steal his belongings. He also gets bullied and doesnt want to tell the teacher because they usually don't do anything about it esp. in P.E. cause the teacher complains they have 60 students to keep track of.

Posted: September 17, 2012

I am shocked to read most of these reviews, however I feel better as it back up how my son and my family was treated here at move em in move em out cattle, LUNA. It is the 4th week of the 2012-2013 school year and we are new here. I have never been treated like this before as a parent of a student with a learning and emotional disability. I will say however that they have a wonderful special ed. dept. I would not even expect to be treated so poorly on the street from a stranger. We are removing our son from this school today as I will not allow these people to further harm my son's well being. Such a shame, move to a great area, pay big bucks and send our child to a 'premier' NISD school and walk away feeling like this. I do have a child at Brennan, and Ott, Luna should take a lesson on professionalism from those other schools. What an absolute joke. I am most thankful that we caught it early on.

Posted: July 15, 2012

I thank God my son only had to attend Luna for one year before Briscoe opened. The Administrators are a joke, and my son had his first year of bad grades. Never a concern call from a teacher. Since" getting out" of Luna things are back to normal with his academics, and have had a great experience with staff and teachers every since. AVOID this school if you have options.

Posted: April 22, 2012

This school is the worst school any of my kids has attended. My child was repeatedly bullied from the beginning of school and she reported it to her math and science teacher several times, obviously trembling and crying. I didn't find out about the bullying until after she was under the care of a psychiatrist for anxiety and depression. The teachers never reported it or notified me. They continued to send her back to class with nothing being done. My daughter finally quit reporting it cause when the kids continued to get away with it they got their friends to join in on the harrassment. The school administration will give you every excuse in the book on why they did nothing about it. I was even told by the vice principal that they usually don't do anything until it becomes physical. WTH??? I had to call the school board in order to get an appointment with the principal to discuss the problem. Prior experience with this principal has been that after she listens to your complaint, she changes the subject. Bullying at this school is way out of hand and the teachers just don't want to be bothered. Be aware: there are federal and state laws that state that parents are to be notified.
