Irmo Middle School
Used to think this was a good school. I guess if you luck out and get a good teacher you're ok. Don't like the fact that your child can have a teacher there on a temp. certificate with a degree in a non related field, and in a critical area on top of that. Some teachers spend all their time texting on their smart phones instead of teaching.

Irmo Middle School
Johnny: Due to high pressure to produce high grades for national testing, at least one teacher has been providing answer to the national tests to his students in order to improve the scool's image. The principal has ignored the abvious sign of cheating in her school. This needs to be investigated.
