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.

It's very crowded, lots of students in a massive school that could be played off like a university. The students show very little respect and the teachers vary differently. Mostly, teachers who struggle with the disrespect of the students struggle as teachers as well, as expected.

Middleton is a great place to go to high school. The teachers are committed and many of them are obviously passionate about helping their students learn and grow. Tons and tons of club options, and the sports are top notch.

Our school has an ASR, All School Resource, period every other day so students can meet with teachers in the subjects they need help with homework or projects. It can be used as a study hall if students don't need to meet with any specific teachers. It helps kids get their homework done in a timely manner and get help if needed.

Good school but has issues and if you need help with a serious issue from upper level admin and Superintendent Don Johnson good luck. Very disrespectful and pompous man. They need to put students and parents as a priority and not their egos and keep trying to protect the teachers and administrators.

There are lots of opportunities for the Advanced Placement students, and, there are a lot of resources for students who are self motivated and have the self initiative to study. However, the fact that students start every other day at 9:20 makes no sense. It is a waste of time, most students sleep i...
