This is one of the best schools that there is in the County and possibly the state. They are focused on providing quality programs and strong academics. I absolutely love the principal and his engagement with students and families.

This school is a very safe, respectful, and kind place for children to learn and in my time being a student here, I have had many pleasant experiences.

The school doesn't deal with bullies in fact it encourages them by punishing the students that stand up , the counselor at this school is not very good . The school has very small lockers that can't fit anything and homework isn't spread out well with students having 4 projects in one week. Honestly the school isn't awful it just needs work.

kids are nasty and rude (all in general are I know) but bullying is tolerated until kids break down and need therapy to deal with the nastiness

Uniform policy is good and helps w discipline. School lacks real sized lockers and physical appearance seems cold and sterile, not inviting. Most teachers however are good instructors

This is school is well worth the distance and hassle of driving on post for my son to have a great education. Im happy that I moved him to this school for his 3 years of middle school. The teachers are awesome and are willing to help in anyway possible to better the kids that attend this school.

My Child was being bullied and instead of stopping the behavior the school allowed it to continue until my child fought back ( verbally ). When that Happened my child was suspended for the reamainder of the year. Way to go School. Lets reward bully's. They didn't even get a detention.

Horrible school! They don't seem to care what goes on, and if you have issue's they never get back to you and maake excuses for it. Foul words used in class. Teacher's talk about things they should not be talking aboutt because it has nothing to do with that class or even dealing with school period. My children come from a high preforming arts school and are not use to this kind of behavior from other childrren and teachers.
