Let me start with it appreciating Mrs. Magaña's efforts to uplift the school community, as it’s clear she genuinely cares about the students’ wellbeing. During my son’s first year, his teacher was exceptionally active and engaged, fostering a positive atmosphere, and communication was strong, keeping parents informed. However, over the past few years, I've noticed a decline in staff morale— many teachers seem disinterested, and when I try to engage with them, their responses often feel passive aggressive or dismissive. This has made it challenging to participate in the PTA, as involvement should be mutually beneficial, yet the current environment feels unwelcoming. Having conversations with other parents suggest that I am not alone in these concerns, I hope they can figure out the need for the school to address these issues to create a more positive atmosphere for everyone involved.

My daughter attended GCISD all through elementary and Heritage Middle School for 6th and 7th grade. What a great experience and excellent foundation she experienced. Everyone from the office staff, teachers, counselors and Principals all went above and beyond. We will forever look back with gratitude. I just wish we didn’t move to Frisco, where we learned not all schools and districts compare to GCISD. A bit of a culture shock seeing the difference. Therefore, thank you Heritage Middle School for everything. You made a huge difference in my daughters life and future. We genuinely thank the entire staff for everything you do for the students. Please know your efforts and dedication absolutely makes a difference every day, every year, and with every student. You are more appreciated than you know.

I do not recommend this school if your kid is a minority and want to thrive in sports.
