this school is great just some of the students don't know how to act and are very disrespectful. and also think that skyline shoudnt have a dress code because it is acutally more work to have a uniform than regular clothes because some/ alot of students dont have enough money to buy uniforms and then get in trouble and some of the lessons that we do are kinda hard and they offer you the teachers help but we arnet able to work with people and that is something that we need to know how to do as we get older.

The teachers are nice, for the most part, and that was the only thing that was really good. The "honors" classes are not challenging, and there are a lot of fights that break out. It used to be a great middle school but it's gone downhill.

Skyline Middle School was kind of an eye opener for me. They honestly have good opportunities, you (or your child/friend) just have to know how to use it and put it to good use.

Can’t help but notice that all these good reviews are from 2014. I too had great things to say about this school in 2014. Unfortunately, it has gone downhill DRAMATICALLY since then. Unfortunately, Skyline is not what it once was and, as a result, the academics suffered greatly.
