"My experience at the Westbrook Middle School is that special education student s needs are not met. Mr. House is not involved and never attends any meetings; he defends teacher s bad behaviors instead of correcting them. The lack of supervision is evident as teachers blatantly do not follow IEP or 504 recommendations. How is it possible for a child (and there are many in this school) to receive all F grades years after year without any intervention. Isn t this school embarrassed at all or blaming the parent is the answer to all their problems because then they don t have to put in the work to help kids? Environment speaks volumes and the demoralization and bullying in this school by some teachers creates an environment of aggression and violence which parents are aware. The budget asks for more special ed teahers, but without support for the cause what is the point?"

"I love my school! And this is coming from a student. We have so many sports, and activities to do as well as different classes. The school is fairly new and I haven't yet met a teacher I would consider mean. I love Mr.Pennella, Mrs. Sanford, Mr. Baxter, and Mrs. Overchuk. Mr.House(principal) is really nice. (if you are a good kid) My classes are: Science > History > Gym > Break > Math > Spanish > Lunch > Family Consumer > Language Arts. P.s. the person who tom burns wrote a review about is one of my friends."

"I have a young daughter in 6th grade who has spent her last two years at the middle school and she loves it. The classes are challenging and the school atmosphere for a middle school is second to none. Mr. House has done a great job and has built a very positive learning environment. Kudo's to Ms. Overchuk who is phenomenal---This town is the best---Tom Burns"

"Westbrook Middle School is not a bad school. However the principal is unreasonable about any change. Special Ed children are not able to get what they need and it is definitely because of Mr. House, the principal. He is a very black and white lined person. Unless there is change in positions, It will never be a good school."
