Heya! I'm an AP/PA Still Middle School student!
I've been in this district almost my entire life, and I love the district! To an extent. You see, the funding, clubs, and diversity is all great! But, there is a few things to mention. So, I'll do a pros and cons list.
Pros
-Easy to get into PA/AP classes. (Since they lowered the bar this year, they are allowing more children in these classes.)
-Majority of the teachers are very kind
-Friendly kids
-No bullies
-Cliques are small and welcoming
-GSA clubs are now in ALL middle schools!
-Girl scout + boy scout troops!
-GREAT music programs
Cons
-Terrible substitutes
-Terrible art teachers (They're rude most of the time, or it was just Gombert art teachers)
-Barely anything for helping students' mental health
So, the pros weigh out the cons! So I'd recommend the district to almost anyone.

Excellent school district! Teachers go above and beyond. Principle is seen and interacts with students. Teachers are aware of each individual students needs and makes sure the child receives the help needed to excel. Student body is diverse. Students feel they are apart of something bigger. As a parent of two children in the 204 school district (McCarty Elementary) I am very happy to see my children happy and learning.
