Harbor Ridge Middle School

"Administrative staff is amazing, building is nice and they do good trying to adhere to students differences"

"So first of all, I'm a student. Second, Almost all these three starers (exception of Ethan Hammel) are stupid. Let me start, This school is not the best, as why I'm not adding 5 stars. Anyway, it's not garbage either. The food is okay and so are most of the people. I talk a lot and so, I know a bit of people. Even the popular people are generally nice, (not always) but the kids who say they are mean just don't socialize enough to understand they aren't all jerks. The school has more good teacher than bad, and even the bad ones aren't horrible. People like Mrs. Hockmuth and Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Olmstead are great teachers, and while some are strict, you still learn something. Even though the curriculum sucks, it's getting better. Anyway, school needs to change the way they teach. The way they teach now is like when they taught people who were going to work in factories. Everybody has a personality, but that's the curriculum not the school. People also say we don't learn any outside world stuff, but they do teach us some economics and we have parents to teach us that as well. There is almost no bullying, and even if there is it's very small. Idk why people are always complaining about being bullied, because I know some introverts, and they seem quite happy at school. (This does not include things at home). Overall, the school as it is is good, and I have a large group of friends. The variety for electives is also great. I'd also like to talk about what someone said, "School doesn’t teach us anything about the real life and how to survive with a job, house, and your life with flexibility. NO. Instead we are filled with useless information about art we will never do again and math problems that only mathematicians will use and figure out." This is all wrong. We learn about economics in 8th grade, we don't have to take the art elective, and we take math to understand how to do the economics in the outside world. You are countering your own point. Anyway, 4/5 start, great school from 6th to 8th. Some snobs. Btw this is coming from an Asian so don't think white kids have it all. -ur boi Maurice"
