With having 4 children graduated from Orchard Hills they were all very prepared for their work load at East Shore middle school. The environment was quite complimentary for my children and allowed them to express themselves as well. There was always a great mix of recreational activities with regard to parades, dances, movie nights, and other events.The academic instruction was also tailored to the needs of students and their learning level whenever possible.

Our experience with OHS has been nothing short of exceptional. It's been a fantastic environment for our kids, all of whom attended and flourished under its care. The school boasts a team of great teachers who create a nurturing atmosphere where every child feels valued and supported.What sets OHS apart is its commitment to creating a family environment. From the warm greetings at drop-off to the engaging activities throughout the day, our children felt at home here. The school organizes numerous events tailored for little ones, which not only enrich their social experiences but also strengthen the bond between the school and families.Academically, OHS excels in providing an effective learning environment. The curriculum is well-rounded, challenging, and designed to foster both intellectual growth and personal development. Our kids were consistently encouraged to explore their interests, ask questions, and think critically.Overall, we highly recommend Orchard Hills for any parent looking for a school that prioritizes both academic excellence and the emotional well-being of its students. It's more than a school; it's a supportive community where children thrive and families feel welcomed.

This use to be an amazing school, unfortunately that has changed. Hopefully soon some changes will come about but for now it is a daily headache for parents and children. Several of our friends are moving out of Milford because of the declining school system. Really hoping some changes come about because it is an otherwise great place to live.
