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.

All the teachers have a great attitude, coming from a student that moved to the country a year ago, I am used to teachers being serious and non approachable people. Since the first day of highschool as a sophomore, I find it engaging and interesting the dedication the staff puts into getting to know you and actually helping you. The school spirit is resfreshing and the sincere care they show us made my transition from countries easier.

I've had a pretty good experience at MHS so far. Most of the teachers are very nice, and everyone is pretty friendly for the most part. The only problem I've had is that I don't believe that funding goes to the right things. We just bought multiple TVs for the library, meanwhile the bathrooms are falling apart. Other than that, I enjoy my time at school.

Everything about Middlesex high school was average. Some teachers were above average since they showed their passion for teaching and it made students more eager to learn. Students were focused on their studies. Other than that, students were divided and everyone stayed in their own cliques. Students aren't welcoming, they will just stay in their own groups. Also, the school lacks heavily in diversity.
