    "I'm not sure how much this school changed over the past few years but my experience has not been a spectacular one. Racism and favoritism are prevalent. Does your child get straight As in this middle school? That's probably because this particular middle school hands out As like they hand out tissues. They are probably not learning anything. Does your kid get at Cs? Well, you have a problem child that doesn't even bother to put his/her name on a single piece of paper. When the little middle school students move onto high school, they will face academic hardships. It's really not surprising. It's a low budget school with hardships on its own. I'm not generalizing. Some teachers put in their best effort. However, as time progresses, they tend to give up. Is it the limited budget? Or the careless students? Careless staffs?"

    "Although they pride themselves on their reputation, the staff is rude, lazy,apathetic, unqualified and indifferent. They are big on rules, but not on anything else. The staff sneaks to their cars to use their cell phones. I can't stand this school and it is a far cry from what it once was. Too bad."

    "Great school, great staff! My experience with JB is that it is an excellent school with a very caring staff. I am amazed at the extra curricular activities the school is able to offer in lieu of the dismal budget that all schools need to contend with. I had one child attend as part of the Magnet program and another child is currently attending the regular program. Both children received the same high level of instruction and more importantly support. Like every other school in the district; it is over crowded but the staff at JB do not use that as an excuse to let children fall through the cracks. Keep up the great work!"

    "The school is being run on favoritism. They have unqualified and inexperienced staff in positions they shouldn't hold. For example, Special Ed. Coordinator, does not have the credential necessary to hold an out of classroom position yet holds it. School safety officer and campus aides do absolutely nothing all day other than fraternize amongst each other in what appears to be a day long lunch for them. I am glad my child is leaving as it is apparent that children with special needs are some kind of dark secret to the administration at JB."

    "Terrible School, tons of racism and fights. Staff are uncaring and lazy, and do not help students. If you must send your kid here sign them up for the Magnet program, if not, avoid at all costs"
