Review Blair Middle School
Recent Reviews
They can turn in projects late and not be docked. So I am not impressed by the quality of education. I do feel that there are some very excellent teachers who care and make students work, but the ideas that my student has come home with regarding work has diminished greatly from their attendance in a private school.
Without ANY study, they get A's even when papers are not accurately done or have the correct answers.
