Jane Lathrop Stanford Middle School Reviews
Rating 3.67 out of 5 6 reviews
Some of the worst and most wicked staff and teachers you could come across. Good education is at the cost of your mental health, as the staff can be intrusive and rude, stretching their minor grievances into year-long interrogations. I and many others I know began therapy as a result of individual separate events that transpired, which have left scars that followed us well into our college years.
I was viewed as less because I wasn't from the area and the staff was racist. They wouldn't reach out to their students when they were struggling.
JLS has some ups and downs and overall as a student it was a good middle school however compared to private schools there could be some improvement. Especially with student life as a victim of bullying from other students, although there are many good people there should definitely be more stricter bullying policies.
