The staff sucks. They repeat answers and dont really explain them very well. The teachers are nice but they usually focus on the class as a sum and dont try to help you individually very much. I got dress coded for were a no school logo sweatshirt and it was the middle of DECEMBER!? The security care more about dress codes and paychecks than your personal concerns.

This is by far the best school Ive ever been to. the teachers here are awesome ( some are strict, but thats not the point ), the classrooms are clean, and the food is somewhat decent, but overall everything here is amazing. I highly recommend parents sending their children here at PDCMS if you want them to get a good education. So join the panthers and be part of the family!

Horrible school. My child attended that school during 6th grade. A teacher was fired for no reason. All she was trying to do was teach, and be the intellectual person she is. But she unfortunately couldn’t thanks to the pathetic staff. Utterly horrible.

Its ok. The back office staff is extremely rude to parents and students. One time i broke my thumb and went to the back office. I told them what had happened and the lady there just rolled her eyes and continued to text on her phone and pointed to the nurses office. They really dont seem to care about the students and teachers. All they care about is how much they get paid. The teachers are pretty cool though. Security is tight. They wont even let you wear a hood at school, anywhere which i think isnt cool .

I like this school. The teachers(some teachers not all) and staff are nice but the dress code is not the best. Wearing a uniform skirt should be ok but I guess its not. I guess its to short. Oh and I am so sorry that my shoulders are distracting boys from learning.

Excellent school! Very happy to have my son in the Best school ever!

Scrolling through previous reviews, I am rather disappointed to note that so many students have been as negative about this school. PDCMS provides students with a tremendous array of opportunities and privileges that are otherwise rare in the valley. Considering so many complaints about dress code and security, I find little to no excuse for such complaining. From personal experience, most students which do not obey dress code are simply extremely stubborn and close-minded. Throughout my three years here, I obtained perfect record in terms of dress code and never received any disciplinary warnings or punishments. It only takes a maturing mind to understand that if you want to be treated with respect, we must follow the rules. I personally am grateful for such strict guidelines and feel more than prepared for high school next year. As for everyone complaining now, I hope they are enlightened in the future and will be grateful for all which PDCMS has provided them with.For anyone which genuinely takes their education seriously, I highly recommend this campus. The staff and students are worthwhile companions that work with a purpose to make middle school fun. I also HIGHLY recommend the band and color guard programs. As a member myself, I can frankly say that joining makes middle school twice as amazing and you will not regret it. Even other programs such as robotics and sports clubs make all the difference, especially when looking forward to high school. Starting these activities in middle school truly makes the transition into high school a lot more organized and stress-free. Most of all, students feel like they have a purpose going into high school which takes away from the nerves.Overall, if you sincerely care enough to enter a middle school which is willing to teach maturing students with a strict but caring manner, then its best to give PDCMS a shot. Lastly, as a piece of advice for incoming/current students, make the most of your middle school years here. Youll be grateful in the long run when you feel more prepared and confident entering high school and beyond. Thank you for your time!

As from my perspective here, I love it. I highly recommend going to this school, it really stands out! They have good food, some students can be pretty bad though, staff, clubs, and is also very clean. This school has a great reputation, too. But a lot of people have been complaining about the dress code being so strict, but I strongly agree too because, you can only wear hoodies in bad weather, cant wear plaid shorts, and other stuff. Also Im sure some staff would read our comments and I would say that the back office staff is pretty bad at their job and it seems like they dont really care about the students just their salary, sorry if Im being too critical.k im too tired to write and edit more so I guess and thanks for reading my reviewMy rating: 3.5/5

Its amazing because its a charter and because its in a really nice area and my old friends are there

Its cool. mr.whitemyer and mr.clark are like the only cool teachers tho. Mr wood is kinda dope also. robotics is fun sometimes

This school is more concerned about dress code and sponsors than education..the office dosent answer questions very well and repeats their answers..they are rude and very inconsiderate I understand the kids need to follow the dress code but they wouldnt listen to why my kid was wearing demim Bermuda shorts we had a family issue and they made it very difficult for my child and were making her miss class time the teachers seem to be great though maybe they should have more teachers in the office instead of these office admin. Who dont care Im taking my child to another school because of how rude the staff is they only care about their paychecks not the students education.. Even the police on duty was agreeing with my concerns but the staff could care less they acted like I wasnt even there with my complaints looks like Ill be going to the district and I make a yearly donation of 1,500 to my childrens schools but they definitely wont get it but they have sponsors anyways this school staff sucks the poor teachers that have to deal with that staff I recommend doing your research before enrolling your child in this no care school.its nice on the outside but the office staff is nothing but b.s

Dont go here if you want to made fun of.students here are absolutely absurd and disrepectful, calling peoples names,and dont dye your hair if you want to made fun of.even though the school dosent really read this,THE OFFICE DOES NOT SHOW RESPECT,which really angers me,especially the elders and other people.they think this is another job to do THEY DONT EVEN SHOW EYE CONTACT. i really thought this was a great school,but no one puts great effort in it,except for a little bit of the portion of teachers.

Its ok here.... but I would improve many thing about this school if I were you...

I have know idea what all of you are talking about I wouldnt want to be anywhere else 😀😀😀😀😀😀You should join colorguard‼😀😀😀😀😀😀
