The grading scale for middle school is too tough. A 92% is a B and a 82% is a C that’s too extreme for middle school. The amount of homework for kids is crazy. Research shows homework does not improve test scores, yet they give hours of homework every day. It’s hard to have after school activities when so much time is dedicated to homework.

School experience has not been pleasant & below average.

My daughter has attended Bear Creek since Kindergarten. The school emphasizes discipline, academic performance and, through the ROARS program, character building. My daughter prefers structured learning environments with clear goals and enforced disciplinary procedures, especially when students try to disrupt the class. It’s difficult to learn when faculty and staff allow students to hijack the room or hallways with inappropriate behavior. I appreciate that none of my daughter’s teachers or the staff I’ve spoken to at Bear Creek have tolerated these disruptions. It’s a school better suited for academically oriented, self-directed kids than kids who struggle in those areas.

Not great at all. they seem very disorganized unfortunately and it's not good with the amount of kids there.
