Two Rivers Public Charter School

I visited my friend who is a teacher there and I was really impressed. Working in a middle school myself, I noticed some of the differences right away.
Two Rivers, is a smaller than usual middle school that services a very diverse student population. The fact that they are smaller is a great benefit to the child as a whole. The teachers are very in tune with what’s going on with each child there. They work in a «family-​like» environment where the old adage of «it takes a village to raise a child» holds truth. The staff seemed very much in sync and appeared to be glad to be working there unlike other schools I have visited before.
The building itself lends itself to be inviting and comfortable. From the types of desks they use to the color of the wall, this entire building stimulates you to want to learn. The walls are painted with a very warm blue so soothing and calming. each classroom has a teacher and a teacher helper which makes the student-​to-​teacher ratio very small. I took a tour and was impressed by the aesthetics such as the partial glass walls!
But overall, everyone was very inviting and nice as I walked through the halls with my friend giving me a tour.
From what my friend tells me everyone works very hard to get to know each child at a personal level and everyone is concerned about the child’s well being.
I would recommend parents who are looking for schools in the area to visit and maybe ask for a small guided tour to see the building.
As someone who works in a middle school with about 1,100 students, I believe smaller settings are crucial especially at the middle school level and if you are looking for that then you need to go check out Two Rivers.
