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.

Overall, this school has a wonderful selection of teachers who care about their students. Administration had its problems while I was there, mainly an embezzlement issue of $10,000 that was used for a "retirement party" as they stated. However, that should not deter you from the fact that this is a diverse school with rock solid programs and after school activities that are able to keep students engaged.

I am a student currently at HMTCA and I am really enjoying my time here. I have been here since 6th grade and I have never wanted to switch schools. While it does have its ups and downs, HMTCA remains respectful of major issues and has a good education system.

The classes provided are fine, but there is not a lot of support for students when help is needed. Teachers do leave constantly and there is not always a feeling of consistency.

I have a ninth grader and a sixth grader and they are given opportunities for learning that I didn't see in our hometown school. The teachers are EXCEPTIONAL, the leadership is outstanding and the expectations on the children are clear and high. I love this school!

Outstanding education and opportunities. My son is in 7th grade and looks forward to going to school each day. He would attend year round if they'd allow it!
