Equity issues, especially regarding sexism & ableism. Needs work on communication In the administration, but other than that this school is an average middle school in HOCO. The teachers (especially in the English departments) are fantastic. Your child will be able to succeed here.

It is a great school this is my 2nd years. The teachers are ok. The teachers also try to push us with our map scores and MCAP/PARCCE.

This is an excellent school. My daughter loves it and is reaching her fullest academic potential. The teachers and principal are excellent. My other children also went to Hammond Middle School and it thoroughly prepared them for the rigors of advanced high school courses.

During a recent assessment for the musical groups, students were rowdy and left unattended by adults. These students were causing commotion in the lunch area, disturbing others including fellow classmates. I feel as though I should be able to rate a lower than a unsatisfactory due to the obscenities displayed by the pupils.
