Hamilton is horrible. Not only do kids get bullied by other kids. Teachers join in. The principals are not responsible for anything. And do nothing to help any student who is struggling. The staff in the office lie about the littlest things. One of my kids are done with middle school, the other will not be coming back to Hamilton in the fall.

This school is a miniature prison where the children are locked inside with the faculty and the parents have NO access. It's the worst school I've ever sent one of my children to. I regret it deeply. The staff is ridiculous, the children aren't learning with the horrific scores they're reporting. It should be shut down.

The school year started off great but the new principle has no clue what they are doing. This school was on the way up with the former principle but she moved on. We heard from other families that this school was not very good but we decided to give it a try and now we are sorry we did. The front of...

This school has presented nothing but challenges. In 6th grade my son had no SPED teacher the entire year and his IEP was not met. We pulled him from the school at the end of the year because one teacher in particular treated my son as a criminal and would kick him out of class almost daily for the...
