Adams City Middle School
During the course of the last 2 years that my child has attended ACMS the first year was pretty tough for adjustment from elementary school to middle school. But the staff of ACMS has worked diligently with my student and she has achieved wonderful progress. Last year turned around due to the staff and their hard efforts with my student she had and overall B average for the school year. I am glad that they (staff) are more concerned with my childs education. I would prefer as a parent not to argue with my child every single day about wearing a uniform. If there are specific colors or whatever that are not allowed I think I could deal with that a lot easier than the extra cost in this economic climate to spend my extra dollars on street clothes as well as uniforms for my child. I would say my overall perspective of ACMS is keep up the good work.****
