“All in all Rodgers has its ups and downs. It has bullies, it's over populated, many teachers are totally inconsiderate, and it's pretty gross. But I also think my teachers were good I learned alot, my guidance counselor was very nice and I'm glad I have her, the lunches aren't bad, and I have made many good friends. So I do think its an okay school.”

“This school is the worst middle school in Riverview. Uncontrolled students. Too many bullies, the staff didn't do anything to stop them. They punished the victims instead.”

“I am not a big fan of Rodgers Middle school, because the teachers are not involve with parent/ teacher communication as I think they should be. I think the principle is doing her best, however the teachers should carry most of the weight when it comes to this. Hopefully, the 2007-2008 school year will improve with parent/teacher communication.”

“My children have attended wonderful elementary schools in Riverview, but when it came time for middle school there was no way I would send them to Rodgers. I have NEVER found any parent that had ONE good thing to say about this school. Am sending mine to a magnet school which is great (but inconvenient) and know many other parents here that are doing the same.”

“Can't wait for my child to be out of this school. There is alot of bullying going on in this school, which does not make for a great teaching or learning environment. While there are some very good teachers at this school, in my experience the bad definetly outweigh the good.”

“Honestly, Rodgers Middle School is one of the worst middle schols i've come in contact with. My child has been going there since 7th grade and since then her grades have slipped greatly. I belive the teachers dont give enough effort in the classrooms beacause of the nummber of students they have to control. They spend half the class period trying to calm the students, and not all of the childrens needs get met. The hallways are packed with students and the behavior is afull. I hear of fights during the school day almost everyday. To tell you the truth, I cant wait until my child moves on to highschool where I hope she can get a better education.”

“Advanced/honors classes are good. Poor communication with teachers, principal and assistant principals. Very over crowded! Poor notice given regarding extracurricular activities.”

“My child has gone to Rodgers Middle School for the past 3 years. I believe he has enjoyed going to this school and all of his teachers too. At one time or another every school seems a bit disorganized, but over all Rodgers has kept us well informed. I especially like their website it has the most current information, the website has all the phones numbers for all the teachers and principal so if I ever have a question I never hestitate to call. My child is learning at grade level and is not having any problems I do owe this to the school and the teachers. My only problem with this school is how far it is because of residential zoning which means that for many parents there will be less after school activites.”

“This school is an absolute mess. The principal has no control and offers no direction to her staff. The atmosphere is not one of learning but filled with tension, anger, disgust and hate.How any child can learn here is beyond me. Parents beware, please send your child antwhere but here. They deserve better.”

“Very disorganized school. Principal very weak minded. Overcrowded. Poor quality food. Special education needs complete overahall. I could go on, but I am sure you get the message. Teachers not well enough qualified, need re trained. Office staff lacking in people skills.”

“This school is very unorganized, the employes workin in the front office are extreamly rude and inconsiterate. The principal spends more time worring about the raising of money than her own students, the parents need to stand up and say something becuse I took my child out of this school becuse all of her classes were to over crowed and the teacher couldent teach. I have seen many parents complain to themselves but they need to say something to the school board.”
