However, the school outperforms some lower-performing schools in the Tulsa area, such as Traice Middle School and Monroe Demonstration Middle School. Additionally, Newman Middle School has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates and a growing population of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges.

I have gotten bullied, and all the school does is turn a blind eye. if you are getting bullied just get an attorney. Close Quote

Both my children attended Newman Middle School and I appreciate the programs they implemented to teach them as well as myself how to recognize and cope with bullying. That age is so hard for both kids and parents and the principal really showed me how to let my kids grow up with proper guidance. My kids have been successful in high school due to the foundation they obtained in middle school. Their teachers cared about them and taught them how to be good citizens. I know there were other students that had issues, but I was able to have good teachable moments at home when we talked about them and then my kids did not have to make the same mistakes the others did to learn what not to do!
