What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, September 22, 2010

The staff at Jefferson would rather advanced and gifted children dumb down so as not to upset the kids that struggle...Jefferson is more concerned about social skills and not hurting anyone's feelings than teaching reading writing and math...hence our move to a private school instead..enrollment continue's to decline and the fact that the Middlebury school district has a frivilous lawsuit against the state of Indiana reeks of desperation as well...many of the teachers at Jefferson need to retire as well...lesson plans and methodology are outdated to say the least.
