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.

Middletown South is a very well rounded school. There are so many different clubs and activities to be involved in. The teachers and guidance counselors are very nice and always there for students when they need a hand. I feel that my school is very strong in education. Our school also offers different pathways such as the business or STEM pathway to help students on there way to a future career.

The faculty supports their students outside of the classroom: like at sporting and theater events. I felt I was taught at a high level and pushed to succeed.
