Barber Middle School Reviews

 
This school has its problems, but the second year has become a major improvement.

I have been going to this school ever since it opened. My class will be the first graduating class to go through barber for 6th 7th and 8th grades. The accellerated programs at our school are extremely good. We only had 12 percent of our 8th graders fail the 8th grade writing assessment, which ie really really low. Many of the students exceeded the standards. One girl got a perfect score on it! She scored a 300, and she has Ms. Vicki Washington to thank for that, she has been her language arts teacher since seventh grade! Also, we are one of the only middle schools in the county that has a dance program. I am a part of the dance performance group in 8th grade, and I'm going to be going to the Cobb County Center for excellence in the Performing Arts @ Pebblebrook High School this coming fall.I this school!

Barber Middle School is, in my opinion, one of the best schools in the area. The principal is concerned with the student's learning and annual test scores. Each year I have seen vast improvement in the scores as she and the teachers work together with much planning to ensure our children are receiving the best education they can. As a parent, I would like to extend my appreciation to Mrs. Williams and her staff for all of their hard work not only to educate my child, but to keep her safe and free from the harassment that sometimes plagues our children at this age.

its an awesome school,&it dosent have a drug problem,most kids are drug/alchol free.although many people who go there are quite fake,you can amke some amazing friends there.the teachers really care baout the students & you can by the way they handle situations they do.im quite proud to call this my school.

I am very disappointed with this school....I think the kids are gong to suffer greatly if they do not improve drastically...they are concerned with behavior and how great the building looks, but the when it comes to making sure the teachers are teaching well and the students are learning well, that's last on the principals/ admins priority list. I was thrilled about the idea of a new school at first but now I'm planning to move so I can be out of this school district and seek to find a school that will give me child the education she needs to be compete in the global world when she is an adult.

Although this is only the first year that Barber has open I can honestly say that it is proving to be an excellent school. My daughter is very happy there. Her teachers are all very attentive and thoughtful of each students' needs. The music dept. and especially Ms. Coste are wonderful. The art teacher,in her own time, established an after school Art Club which my daughter belongs to. It has been a great way for my daughter to express her creativity. The principal came to Barber from Autry Middle School and Barber is lucky to have her. She is very involved with the school and her students and has even taken part in the after school Art Club classes. I'm extremely pleased with Barber Middle School and look forward to my son joining his sister there next year.
