It was bad and there was so many fights. There's also roaches and they say on some halls not all but if there are roaches in a hall they are gonna be everywhere in the school. So it was infested with roaches too and it had roaches the whole school year, they never tried to get anyone to remove them and when they said they did it was only like 1 or 2 halls they got people to remove them. But they didn't do the whole school.

My child came here at 7th grade, from Maryland. He had been in a Private Catholic school prior. He thrived at this school, academically and socially. (Don't get me wrong, if you keep a chicken cooped up for too long - they will spread their wings, but we knew - and it didn't take long til' he knew we knew!! -- but the school and faculty were completely Wonderful and he Thrived at this school

This school is amazing! The staff is so nice, especially Mrs. Watkins, Mr. Clark and Mr. Pennington. If you find a good group of friends you will have a great time at this school.

At Battlefield middle school fights happen weekly, and I know cause im a 7th grade student. Your child has a 33% chance of being bullied most of the students come from low income neighborhoods and aren´t disaplined. All the students think highly of them selfs and try to be the alpha and a fight starts. The ISS at the school isnt good either because the students go back to doing bad things I know because one of my friends is one of them. The teachers are ok but some of the teachers are some of the nicest people you will meet and some and one of them will yell at you if you have a differernt argument in a subject or just having a differnt opinion that teacher also hates on kids with differerent religions. The principle thinks everything is hers even though its the states. THE WATER FOUNTAINS 90% of the water fountains for the past 3 months have been spewing dark grey water but the principle says they are working on it 2 months ago and hasnt done anything about its a saftey. The good is deteaminated I had a fly in my food before and there is many other bad things but DONT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE I WARNED YOU
