  • Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on January 22, 2007
  • Rating: 3 (3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • I'm very angry because Barbour is not reconized as a middle school. First because my child is in 6th grade and does not know how in the heck middle school is like. They dont start school at 9:30. There are no choices for lunch HEALTHY AT LEAST!!! They have recess any regular school has 1 hour for lunch they get a freaking 15 minutes for lunch and recess. No kind of study hall to finish any unfinished work. They have different specials for every day. In a regular middle school they only have one special a quarter.No swimming pool in the school i used to go to we had a pool to learn how to swim.The play ground is a piece of crap to the fullest for younger students.I think if these things do not change i will soon change my two kids to new schools I have more to say but the less I say the less violent.
