GreatSchools Rating
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. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I really like middle college. I do wish there was more parent and community involvement however, because I find it a bit lacking.

My favorite part is the accessibility of everything—faculty, leadership opportunities, everything is there as long as you demand it. However, the school's facility maintainence is slightly concerning, as sometimes the same room will feel like two different seasons in one day.

Middle College High School is what I consider to be one of the most rewarding opportunities a student can take advantage of. By offering both High School and College credits, student can achieve their AA at the time of their High School Graduation. It can include grueling coursework and require most of your tie, but the reward of. aheadstart on your future is all worth it. With amazing staff and accountable resources, you are sure to succeed.

It is alarming that 17% of the teachers left MCHS in 1 year. These teachers were integral to the school's success and their departure is felt by the students. This school does not offer any AP classes, so the smart students have to do busy work while waiting for the slow students to keep up.

MCHS has experienced a noticeable decline since the arrival of a new principal. She consistently refused to listen to concerns from both parents and students. This disconnect of communication has led to frustration and demoralization among students. The school is struggling to reach full enrollment.
