I love my son's school there is great supervision, and you never have to worry about your child's safety its truly the best they fixed as much as possible that they could throughout the year I've never had to call this school for anything and I think if you give Salem Church Middle School a chance you'll see that it's a perfect community for your child, my child always comes home happy and Joyful and excited to tell me about his amazing day at school there's always drills to have your child ready for anything that happens they also fixed the bullying issue I''m pretty sure just give it a chance you' 'll also get to see the joy in your child''s eyes walking off that buss or walking to the car!

I agree. There is no supervision. Even when you make the school aware of the issue of bullying, they say we will speak with the other student. Then it still continues to happen. You tell them again; they act like it is not a big deal and they will talk with the student. They do nothing, that's why it still happens. Kids have killed themselves because of bullying. The mental anguish bullying puts on the kids. The school belittles the bullying. Schools should be held accountable. This school is not a safe environment for kids.

There is a huge bullying issue at this school! They are in denial! It's so bad that the students record videos of fights and then post it on social media to share and brag about it. The school does nothing. The school has no systems in place on the buses nor the school to protect the kids. There is a lack of supervision in the hallways. I hope that one day this school fixes this issue before someone truly gets hurt.
