At my time in Foothills, I was able to enjoy my time since homework load wasn't the most dreadful thing, but I would have liked to be better prepared for high school. I feel as if in 6th grade the teachers put more work on the 6th graders then the 8th graders. For me, my 8th grade year was a breeze. But the thing that really stood out to me was the people that I was surrounded by. They made middle school unforgettable and I look back on it everyday and smile. So if you surround yourself with friends that you can have a good time with, the rest will be fine.

The curriculum and school were great, and there was a great supportive group, from my math teacher to the crossing guard. Some teachers may ignore some students at times and it can feel very uncomfortable. The teachers loved teaching over the set curriculum, for example teaching extra in math or science.

Overall, I love this school. The people there are amazing, and so are the adults there. I have never seen more than a serious argument between two friends in my time at this school. Rarely a fight breaks out and when it does the adults settle it quickly and efficiently.

I like this school because the school follow strict drop off, visitor policy all the time. School fosters active learning environment for students and have some great program, like band, sport teams.
