Horton Middle

My experience as a student was great and I am really involved with the culture and how activities operate at the school. I love the staff and my other peers. I will be in 8th grade this year and will be really sad to leave. Horton Middle school has really improved me!

I can't wait for my daughter to finish 8th grade and get out of this poor excuse for a school. There is a culture of laziness among the teachers and many of them treat the kids like dirt. I honestly don't know how some of the teachers still have a job...must be very protected as state employees. If they worked in the real world, they would be unemployed after their first day on the job. I was hoping a new Principal would improve things, but after a few years, it is evident that she is full of hot air and no action. A very toxic environment for kids to be in and teachers are not held to any standard whatsoever. If you have a choice, avoid this school like the plague.

We are looking to transfer our student. This is the second year here and it has taken a negative effect on mood, interest in school and academic performance. Several people I know have opted for homeschool to avoid this school. Just awful!

This experience has been extremely difficult for my 5th grader. It has created a lot of anxiety and has been a confidence drain.
