Middlebury Academy 88 Kent Street, Akron, OH 44305

"This Great school is up and coming with caring teachers and students growing into their potential. The teachers and administrators love the kids and work hard day in and day out to help the students Reach goals."

"There have been a lot of positive changes in leadership and staff throughout the year. The change in the culture of the building has been a massive improvement. I can't wait to see what the future holds."

"I know the principal, and from what I hear, the staff are well-trained and very conscientious. The teachers and staff are working with many kids who struggle, which accounts for the rough impression the school's stats suggest. However, given the extreme challenges the students pose, Middlebury is doing an amazing job. Don't underestimate this place!"

"There are teachers and staff here who care and there are those that don't. The children are ridiculed and disciplined harshly. This would not be accepted in a suburban school district. My son's fifth grade teacher has the kids copy sentences 100 times to prove a point and takes away privileges. There is no air conditioning and no art teacher."

"I am highly irritated about this school. My son comes from a small school with maybe 6 kids a Christian school which I explained to to them .Never had a issue with him in fact his former teachers would say he doesn't have a malicious bone in his body. He started at middlebury Monday and today is his second day here. The teacher was beyond rude to him kicks him out of the class threatens to call his parents to the point he is crying and can't even be calmed down. The part that really pissed me off is nobody ever called me. He was crying so hard the officer came down to maybe calm him down I'm hoping. He told me he thought the officer was gonna wack or shoot him. Now being a mom of a little black boy who is only 7 years old hurts my heart its broken. I started crying that his experience was that bad and I allowed him to go here. I made a bad choice now I have to enroll him somewhere else and feel so bad I put him through this. Word of advice stay clear from this school the reviews are true they are mean as hell and really don't care about the kids just a charter check.You couldn't pay me to go back in fact I wish I could pay people to stay away. You would be better off trying to get ed choice voucher shut they ass down waste of tax money."
