GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The school is very unique in many ways with interesting things to do. It is different from most middle schools because it has 5th-8th and they only go 4 days a week which can be useful because it allows them to easily make up for a snow day or national holiday where other schools have to add on to the year and go into June. Another great thing is the teachers who may seem strict to some don't always want to be strict but at times have no choice other wise the teachers are very kind and are always willing to help with any school related stuff. The only downside to the middle school is trying to find music teachers that are willing to teach choir and band to 6th-8th and just music to 5th graders. That is why Belle Fourche Middle School is the best. GO BRONCS!!!
