Alum: I have enjoyed each of my 3years at Hopkinton Middle School. The start of my career was rough, but thanks to the resources offered at HMS, I entered my second year with refreshed energy and an improved outlook on my middle school career. I have been eager to continue challenging myself and my potential ever since. I applied my new life lessons and not only improved my academic performance but expanded my horizons. Inspired by conquering my own failures, I found not only personal success, but also ways to educate and benefit others.

Alum: Brown Middle School provides people with a solid education. Not great, but definitely better than the average school.

Not outstanding, but feel as though I was prepared for high school.

Senior: I have concluded that Burlington High School represents one aspect of an overall good school system with good foundation to carry me forward in life and be successful. I had opportunity to enroll in challenging classes (multiple advanced placement classes with great test results) and participate in the Music program via Marching Band and Wind Ensemble (audition only). My connections via teachers, advisors and other students was invaluable.

Ottoson Middle School

• Arlington Public Schools, MA
• 6-8
• 4 reviews

Parent: We're really happy with the experience we had at the Ottoson. My child found the school to be welcoming, the children to be friendly and non judgemental, the clubs and extracurricular activities to be outstanding, they had an excellent music program as well, and the real standout was the teachers.

All of my child's teachers were dedicated, really kind and just amazing educators. My child felt emotionally secure at OMS. I think it's an excellent school that really puts the kids first. The building could use an overhaul but my child really enjoyed her time at the Ottoson, and she will really miss her core teachers, her art and computer science teachers, the orchestra director and the librarian. It is a great school.

John Glenn Middle School

• Bedford Public Schools, MA
• 6-8
• 2 reviews

Parent: My son is a 7th grader at John Glenn and loves it. The quality of teaching is generally excellent, with enthusiastic, intelligent, motivated teachers. He loves the 6-day class schedule, although it did take a little getting used to. In addition, his MCAS precentages have improved into the exceeds category, showing objective improvement. Socially, the dances have been a bit hit or miss, but middle schoolnis a tough social age. The arts programming is excellent, music, stage, etc .... No issue with drugs, vaping, or the like to speak of. Good sports for a middle school as well. As a parent, we were not sure what to expect, but have been very pleased.
