Recent Reviews

I think that chisolm middle school is the worst school that my child has attended ever in newto, my child has always been a good student ,and loved school until she started attending chisolm. The principal never addresses any issues,and is constantly on my childs case for anything and everything(except the things she should be worried about).My child has asked for help from teachers in subjects that she has struggled with and is constantly made to feel stupid for asking for help. I have found only one teacher that has helped my child throughout this whole school year and i am so grateful to him. Last time i checked our school system was supposed to encourage and educate our children,this school does no such thing. I cant wait for my child to get out of this school so she can be excited about her education once again...so to all you chisolm administrators and staff thanks alot for nothing.
