Being a student at MTMS, I can say it is okay at best. The nicest people there are literally the gym teachers, and lunch ladies. The school bases everything off of a completion and that kind of sucks. The amount of homework is absolutely ridiculous taking me (a pretty average student) over five hours to finish. If you ever have a problem, go to the gym teacher - never go to the guidance counselor! She will confront the person you talked about, and use your name.
The school places a premium on quantity over quality, especially with math homework and night writes. One math teacher routinely assigns hours of iExcel homework rather than teach the kids math. The grammar teachers are mediocre to poor. Students report the teachers ignoring them in class while they play on their smart phones.
The school also has a bit of a social hierarchy. Some of the more popular kids form "clicks" and bully the less popular kids. The administration reinforces and enables this behavior by making the popular kids "peer leaders" and passing over the less popular kids. Casting for the HSA school musical tends to favor kids whose parents know the directors or have connections. Having seen first hand the auditions of many students and the performances at the end of the year, I can confidently say that casting is NOT based on the most talented kids. Ditto with the sports program. Kids who are really, really talented end up not making the team.

I am currently a student at Mendham Township Middle School and I can say first hand that this school lives up to its standards. It is a pretty average school, but there is a lot more than that, there are many things about this school that I like.
One thing that I would change is that it is a very social school, and thats great and all until someone gets teased or bullied, or kids are failing out of classes because they are too social.
