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.

Middle College High School has been welcoming and helpful in my academic career. It has allowed me to get a jumpstart on my college education, and I will graduate next year with an associate's degree. It also has provided me with encouragement and plenty of resources.

I love my high school. It is a middle college for juniors and seniors so students are there for a shorter time. In these two I have learned more than at my previous high school. The opportunities that this school gives their students are amazing. Thanks to this school, I received my associates degree at my local community college for free. The staff and the counselors and the principal are the best. If I could repeat my junior and senior high school I would still choose Middle College HS at Durham Tech.
