I have never seen a middle school very poor like this. My first impression is that teachers are not that good in communication. Plus my child never been doing poorly in other schools before until he started at Roberta road middle. Teachers have no control over students, they teach in a very distracted environment. Some teachers tend to hangout with certain students while the rest are sitting there. This school needs to be investigated and someone needs to train everyone who works there. Nothing is organized.
