Good school with nice blend of academics and clubs. Great Robotics program that excels each year at both state and national level. Overall a great School to set a sound foundation for future success!!!!

3/14/2025

It's a great school and there are SO many opportunities but it is certainly competitive and the students can be a little cutthroat. I wouldn't move for anything but I do wish we weren't bombarded with so much work. Regardless, it's a great experience at Montgomery.

I would like to see MHS have extracururiculars on days other than Wednesdays. What this does is be annoying. I also wish it was easier to remove your study hall.

There is a heavy emphasis on academics and competition but not on supporting the needs of all students and creating a healthy environment. For example, there is significant pressure to take advanc...

It has good/bad. If a child has significant needs, they will get support, but for everyone else... It has a high rating bc of high test scores. Kids get high test scores due to an ultra competitive environment with significant parental pressure. Kids routinely skip years ahead in math, making kids w...
