Gower Middle School

Rapidly going downhill. If you look at all those 5 star ratings, they are 4+ years or older, all written prior to the new Superintendent coming into office. The great teachers are retiring, and a lot of the awesome younger teachers are leaving the district due to ineffective leadership from the superintendent and the principal. The superintendent is very focused on budget cutting for educational programs, but sees nothing wrong with having a Superintendent, Assistant Superintendent, 2 principals, a Dean, and extensive support staff for those positions. Seriously it's less than 700 students. Maybe the administrative staff could file their own paperwork and make their own phone calls, and we could bring back the Foreign language program and focus on student education.

I went to this school and even though it was a very great school, they taught you the right things to know... not all were very relevant. Some teachers did not treat kids the same as others. Even some students would realize teachers treating kids unfairly. Some teachers aren't that great at teaching the lesson. Some teachers would sometimes even get upset when kids aren't understanding the process when we are trying out hardest. Overall, I do recommend this school. Other than that situation it is very great the principal and the dean of students are very sweet people and some teachers are great.

One of the best schools in the midwest. The teachers are great and the kids come out smarter than they will in any other school around there.

I graduated 8th grade this year and I gotta say this is the best school I've ever gone to the kids are nice and helpful, my previous school which was Westview Hills wouldn't even compare to this school at all

It's been a great school for my son. Crazy comments here are not true.
