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.

This school is a fantastic school to attend. I attended pioneer middle school and everything was awesome. I love Pal and ASB and how they are always helping out with things. I also love when it's lunch time and ASB makes games that are very fun and competitive. And the student of the month assemblies. Those are the best, although they do take too long. My experience at pioneer middle school was fun and great I recommend going to this school.

I've had some teachers who did not care about their job as a professional. Some teachers did not treat a lot of their students with respect.

Pioneer Middle School has been great for my 7th-grade son, who has an IEP and is an ESL student. The teachers and special education assistants are very helpful, and the campus is nice. He really likes it here.

This school gets too much credit for being a good school. They have a serious bullying problem in the form of psychological bullying. The good students are mean and belittling to the average or below average students and it is relentless making it a hostile enviornment.
