Middleton High School Reviews
Rating 3.89 out of 5 357 reviews
Middleton High School is an excellent institution that has a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. The school has a diverse student body that represents various backgrounds. The staff at Middleton High School promotes a culture of respect, inclusion, and acceptance, which fosters a positive and supportive learning environment for all students. Middleton High School also has a strong sports program, especially in track, cross-country and football. The preforming arts department is also very good, and there are concerts and plays throughout the year. Overall, I would recommend this school to anyone seeking a multidisciplinary education and supportive community.
Overall, it's a pretty good school. Most of the teachers are great and I really appreciate the variety of resources available. That being said, the administration is downright terrible. They do not listen, and often appear to be actively making student lives worse by wasting their time on collective punishment and bowing to the will of angry parents when they should be stepping back and trying to figure out why their school culture is promoting poor student behavior. It's fairly decent besides all that though, the music program is fantastic and there are a lot of good science and math courses.
Middleton High is a very academic-focused school It has a good quality education and is placed in the top 20% of all schools in Wisconsin for overall test scores. But, the school has some problems when it comes to diversity. The majority of the students that attend there are white and upper-middle class, so for someone to not come from that background, they can sometimes feel like a fish out of water. Occasionally, there are small incidents-such as bullying and harassment- that usually get resolved quickly by the school and faculty members. Despite all this, they have a range of departments and extracurriculars. The sports teams are great, there are miscellaneous amount of clubs that people can join, they have they even host a Fine Arts Week to showcase different people’s projects whether it be art, theatre, music, etc. In general, Middleton High is a good school to attend, and easily prepares students for success in the long run.
