My daughter is an 8th grader at Britton. I would have never guessed how hard the 7th grade would be! My daughter came from a very small school. She had to learn to adjust socially. The diversity of population of the school taught her to be 'street smart'. I can't thank enough the teachers and the

I definetely think the school would do even better with a higher parent involvement. The Home and School Club is really dedicated to make a difference by uniting the latino and the caucasian community. This is a great Middle School ! You will only get out of it what you put into it! So get involved, and make this short two years count! Read less
