This School’s Reviews

3.0 Senior

1/8/2024

It was an alright experience. In my opinion, it doesn't prepare you too much for the true college experience. If you do play a sport other than football don't expect much support from the school. Also, the school barely ever supports the arts or even band. The curriculum is alright but I wish there were more challenging classes that would make you think. Also little diversity.

I enjoyed all 3 years I have attended and I am getting along great with my fourth. I haven't ever had a problem with education, sports or other school related activities in my time.

3.0 Senior

9/29/2023

The school has some of the best academics available in the county, but as a student with mental health struggles, I felt unheard. I talked to 5-10 people in the past two years at my school about my issues and the only thing I ever got was false hope and empty promises.

I moved to this district when my son was in 7th grade, the difference was amazing. He flourished here, wish I would've moved sooner.

This school fails to maintain a safe environment for the students and staff. Unless a student is involved in athletics, he/she is overlooked. Discrimination against those not involved in athletics is through the roof. The ongoing bullying epidemic has had zero management and a great lack of attentio...

My experience as a student at blue mountain high school has been nothing short of a hellish disaster. Kids here are only valued if they are participating in a sport and/ or come from a wealthy or middle/upper class family. Everything is viewed as a popularity contest and the arts is extremely underf...

This school is a giant clique. If you aren't rich or good at sports, you're going to have a terrible time. If you belong to one of these two groups and hang out with someone who isn't, you're going to be mocked back into the fold. Certain compassionate staff members may try to stop bullying and hara...
