3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagethis school would rather target and prosecute the kids who are tardy and not the kids who are vaping and doing other things...? the teachers are good people but when it comes to students the school is over its head, they cannot control all the things going on around school and even if they could they probably wouldn't do anything about it anyway Mcdowell High School has so much potential but fails to reach it on so many different levels some students do see something and say something.... but the thing is who is going to listen and actually do something about it.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy grand daughter starts Kindergarden this week I will let you know more how I feel about this school once she progresses through the school year. The only way I can post this is to select a star rating. Since I have no experience with this school as of yet I will start with the highest rating and go from there. Good Luck Old Fort Elementary I am hopping that you can live up to the 5 star rating I am giving youOther Review15y ago - West McDowell Junior High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am in 7th grade at West McDowell Middle School and I would not want to go anywhere other than here. All the staff are very nice and know the answers to almost every single question. A special shout out to Mrs. Gowan a seventh-grade math teacher. She has been battling with sickness after sickness and still in her absence she can answer any questions a student has via email. I would recommend this school for any rising sixth graders to rising eighth graders.Student Review7y ago - McDowell Early College

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSchool has a nice enough program that gives driven young adults a chance to excell for their future. The program is good but they change things on a whim and do not believe in involving parents. They schedule EVERYTHING LAST MINUTE AND EXPECT PARENTS TO CHANGE THEIR SCHEDULES AROUND TO ACCOMMODATE. This part infuriates me. They have a horrible mandatory trip every year forcing the students to go to camp haite and stay outside in 90 degree temperature all day and sleep in cabins with no air conditioning like a boot camp. They say it is for team building but it is truly torture for the students. The showers are separated by curtains in some cabins and the kids come home dehydrated and sick every year. The tuition was free when the kids started there and now they charge more and more every year and started telling them this year if they didn't pay in 48 hours they would be dropped from their classes. It has truly gotten ridiculous there. I am glad my child has the degree at the end but I think it could be ran a lot better and the trips could be better planed and finances. They never do any good fundraising besides the variety show which raises no money for the trips. This school needs better management and planning horribly. Hope that in the future they do better by the students and realize that not everyone is made of money or has a schedule that can change on a whim.Parent Review9mo ago
