Mission Hill Middle School

Ok school for the average person with a low budget, but if you have other options it might be a better option to look elsewhere. They teach low skill classes which is good if you have been in public schools for awhile. I personally have a learning disability so it was hard for me to be in this environment. The teachers have to focus on the whole class of 30 kids so it is hard for teachers to give individual attention to the kids who need it. I was supported as a student fairly well through 6^th and most of 7^th, but in 8^th was a bit more troublesome. This is a great school if you want to make friends as a kid and learn about different kinds of people and thier lifestyles. The environment was leaning a bit away from the safe side though because there were multiple illegal activities that taken a couple years to catch and are still going on such as drug use, drug selling, child pornography, and many other things that have been going on. Some other things that are more legal, but should still be unacceptable, are sexual activities, bullying, racism, sexual harassment, rarely sexual assault, and more. My friends and I also have/​had video evidence of a some of this happening. If something bad is happening, the principal and vice principal do judge who to punnish and how by what they think of them and thier reputation with them. This is all understandable considering how little they get funded, how much work has to be put in to running a school of this size and the teachers all mean well. The main reason I have given a one star review is because of how I got treated and how they stood up to multiple tests I have put apon them as a student. It’s good for some, but not for others.

In a year of scary budget cuts, this amazing team of educators pulled the magic wand out for making incredible things happen. Currently science, math and literature courses offered at Mission Hill offers a glimpse of the fine teaching examples qualitatively on task and engaging. My 7^th grader is flourishing with his current class offerings, and it’s a delight to converse with him around subjects that are important, but to be conversational. face to face with a real live tween well that’s just about the best thing that could happen to a parental unit. I honor your commitment to this fine student body. Hats off to Valerie and her awesome team.
