(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am a student at Verdigris Middle School. I am in the band and I play two instruments. I have straight A's. I am also in athletics. On a few different sites, parents say it is a 'Fit-Into-The-Mold-School.' I, on the other hand, totally disagree with those people. They are parents, and do not go to the school itself, their kids do. Sure, there are bullies there, but are there any schools without any bullies now days? I find the teachers very helpful, most of them explain their material to an extent everyone can understand. Our bands are amazing, some of the best in the state, and that is amazing for me because I am so into music. We may not have the best electives, but we are a small school and we do our best. Over all, I love this school and I hope I never have to transfer. I, as a student, would recommend this school to anyone. My mom went here, along with both of my siblings. We have all loved it.
