Macarthur Middle School

this school is the worst ever they will try to hold your kids back from getting there education. Some of the teachers do not care for the kids and they education. They will rather get on a kid level and go back and forth with them instead of getting a parent involved. This school is not set up for the kids to continue there education but instead hold them back. These are kids not inmates.
