Both of my kids had a wonderful experience at Mineola Middle. The teachers care and reach out to us regularly if they feel something is wrong. Both of my kids are in the Accelerated and Gifted Program (AGP) at the school and are being pushed to their potential. My older son will graduate this year and will go on the HS in Mineola. He will be taking his first regents exam this year before entering HS. The district also fund summer and online programs for the kids, keeping their minds engaged even throughout the pandemic. They have a strong science program and participate in National competitions, like Rube Goldberg. Overall, a wonderful experience. Close Quote
