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.

Harrisburg South Middle School is the worst school if you have autistic children. They are very rude to parents and when they think nobody can hear them they are yelling at the students. Last week I went to pick up my child and when the receptionist called the classroom via intercom to retrieve my child I could hear a teacher yelling at the top of his lungs about a paper falling off the window and I thought to myself "Is that where my child was?" I am currently looking at the schools located in the surrounding towns to put my child in instead of subjecting my child to that kind of barbaric atmosphere. What's more disturbing is not only are they acting like this but they also have what they call a "zero tolerance"policy which means if your child so much as says no to them they will be punished for it. Do your children a favor and keep them away from Harrisburg South Middle School.
