Very high! We moved here from a small private school on the East Coast that we loved so much and expected transition to a huge public school to be awful. To our surprise it has been awesome. The teachers are funny, kind, accessible and supportive. She's learning so much in interesting cool ways.The technology available is great. There's a wide variety of extra on-site offerings from guitar to cooking to babysitting classes. The indoor/outdoor campus is something I never thought we'd get to experience (great for vitamin D in our screen focused world). My daughter loves the lunches (which I previously annoyingly had to make) and the physical ed is giving her a strong foundation of healthy habits. She runs more than anyone in our family now. The principle is friendly, present, and engaged with the students and activities and the school is built on rewarding good behavior including being respectful to others. And as a bonus, you can see the ocean from campus! We highly recommend shorecliffs for your child and are grateful we chose it for ours!

It’s bad here. The only “bright side” of shorecliffs middle school is the friends I have here, and even that gets stressful at times. There’s constant fights going on here, I believe there was one just yesterday, and nobody does anything to stop it. That’s my main problem with this place, the teachers and supervisors do absolutely nothing to help their students with anything. Not with learning, not with social matters, not when they’re getting bullied even to the point of black eyes. The disabilities thing too, there’s kids here with both mental and physical disabilities and no teachers do anything to positively effect them. I have one friend who was on crutches for a period of time and there were supervisors who were supposed to help him in the elevator every day and just forgot. So he just couldn’t get to lunch or couldn’t get to his next class.

Overall, I loved my experience at Shorecliffs. The teachers enjoy their jobs, and try to help every student in any way they can. As a former member of ASB, I would also highly recommend going to as many events as possible. By doing this, I was able to make the most of my middle school experience and form friendships that have (so far) lasted well into high school and will hopefully continue. In short, I highly recommend Shorecliffs as there are many opportunities for any time of person who may attend.

This is a pretty good school. Has lots of after school activitys and bake sales to raise money for the school or charitys. Only one problem there are fights constantly happening. Almost every week.
