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.

Great teachers. Great kids. Great town. Nothing amazing, but solid. Typical middle school experience with cliques, nerds, and bullying. I enjoyed Fisher. It was challenging enough to prepare me for high school, but not too hard. Some drug problems in recent years, but not while I was there.

Just feel like the warnings I was given regarding teachers, bullying and support (all negative for the most part) remains accurate based on what I see and hear. And where does all the money go?!!! No field trips??? Wild. Paying for sports?! Donations for what?!?

My daughter feels her 1st year of middle school experience at Fisher is amazing. She likes the independent-feel of classroom arrangement, and the freedom of the social setting. The campus is small but mostly neat and functional. From our observation, the enjoyment of her learning experiences at fish...

The teachers can't teach. It's hit or miss. 6th graders should be in elementary school, not middle school. They are not mature enough to handle what goes on there!

poor. parents are kept in the dark about most negative things that occur at this school so that it comes across as the perfect place to be. it is not. Lack of supervision because the principal prefers out of site out of mind.
