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 like how new sports are available to the students. The teachers are great and security is pretty good because they are always there when you enter the building and ask you your reason for visiting the school.

Just like many of the schools in the ERCSD, Pomona was woefully underfunded and understaffed. However, every teacher tried their best despite the circumstances, and it really payed off. Though times were rough, I had some of the best times of my life in Pomona. I really do wish we had more funding though.

The school environment of Pomona Middle School is concerning, most students get caught up in bad influences from the students around them. School staff try to combat this but inevitably lead nowhere if you want a good experience overall for your children look elsewhere.

My child had a terrific experience in Pomona Middle and he is now in NYU working on his BA for Computer Science. The teachers are caring and the Super intendent has done a great job making everyone rise up.

Great school and has taught me many useful things that could help me in life. There are many after school activities that are fun and that kids enjoy.

Good school we had like the second best football team after north Rockland and I loved the concert we played the latest songs insteadnof classical music. Best school period.
