2/26/2024

I would like to see a change in funding for the art department. I feel like my school focused on the sports teams and left the musically/artistically inclined to fund for their activities on their own.

5.0 Senior

I love my school. The atmosphere is great, the teachers are spectacular. I can't imagine going to a different school. I am involved in the music and arts and they are definitely some of the best places in the school.

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 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...
