#2 Best Public Middle Schools in Ohio
Parent: Menlo is one special place, and there's nothing like it in our area! Because 100% of the students are gifted, 100% of their education is too. Even though our local school district talked a good game about providing gifted learning to our daughter as a second grader, they did not deliver at all. Absolutely nothing.
My daughter feels at home at Menlo. Everyone gets her and her uniqueness. She found "her" people, both fellow students and teachers, and I hear that a lot from other Menlo parents. She felt like an outsider and misunderstood at our local school, and she was always bored. Not at Menlo.
The teachers are amazing! They care so much for their students, and teach at a pace appropriate for gifted kids (much faster than local schools). They constantly evaluate kids for readiness to progress to the next level up, and move them there when ready, regardless of what grade they're in, how old they are, or where they are in the school year.
