Overall the truth is this school is terrible in my opinion. I sent my son to this school trusting the school would be good for my son and I was deeply disappointed. They changed the curriculum twice in the middle of the school year…(ALSO) my sons teacher left in the middle of the school year. Apparently the previous teacher new she was leaving and was just passing these kids along for two semesters. Therefore these kids did not receive a proper education for two semesters. There was no homework sent home and grades reflected great progress. When the new teacher came all of a sudden my son was failing…..I am greatful that the new teacher came because she brought these kids up to speed but unfortunately because he did not have her from the beginning of the school year his reading is at beginning stages of first grade….( he is not the only kid in this class with these issues) there are other kids suffering from administrative neglect and the only answer the school has for this is to hold him back. The assistant principal is NOT equipped for the job given to her she encouraged holding him back due to their failure of guidance to these teachers.They do not offer summer school. The teachers do not have to give out homework if they choose not to. The administration does not oversee the teachers to ensure they are giving these kids quality or even standard education. In general I am extremely disappointed (more like disgusted) and will NOT be sending my child to this school next year….it’s a mess….His current teacher Miss. Harris is a great teacher but I am not confident there are many teachers there like her.

My experience of going to Bradford as a old Bradford student was decent.Bradford was good in my younger days but when I start to get close to middle school like 4th and 3rd grade it took a huge turn bullies would start to come the teachers wouldn’t do anything about it,their education system is not that good I learned the minimum of what I was suppose to learn.When I left that school and went to a actually good school I didn’t learn anything when looking back. It felt like I learned nothing a Bradford when I went to this new school they expected me to know everything because of past years and what I was suppose to be learning in those grades .Their food is also terrible when my mom was volunteering for the school lunch she found that they warmed up the same pizzas from the last time they served them.Ever since them I’ve been bringing my own lunch

DO NOT send your child here, speaking from a kids perspective this is one of the worst schools i’ve ever been to. Many kids are bullied all the time and the teachers do not care at all. Also, the teachers are extremely unorganized. And the bathrooms are also horrendous. The teachers are horrible at teaching and my grades started to drop the minute I entered the school even though i’ve been an honor roll student my entire life. I was trying my hardest but I wasn’t learning enough because the teachers do not know how to teach and they don’t put enough effort and time into teaching the kids. If you want your child to have a good learning experience don’t send them here. – a Bradford Academy middle school student.
