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.

Newtown Middle has no diversity. I go there currently and I am of mixed descent. Some kids here are welcoming but most are racist. I have not had a great experience here. Most kids say the n word constantly and ask for the "pass". I hope there is a more diverse future for this school. The teachers could be better but for the most part they're good!

The facilities are beautiful with natural light throughout the building. There are plenty of clubs and activities for the kids to choose from and the academics are great with support staff available for various student needs. It is difficult to communicate with teachers due to the many legal restrictions.

Counselors are on top of any student problems. Seem genuinely concerned & caring. Parking is a problem though...very long walk from new parking lot.
