8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageE.Ethel Little School is a hidden gem! It may be small, but it's packed with heart. The teachers are not only amazing but also highly engaging, making learning a true pleasure for the kids. The school principal shows exceptional care for every student, creating a nurturing environment. The sense of community here is strong, and the active PTO program adds an extra layer of support and involvement. This school is a testament to how a tight-knit community can make a big impact on a child's educationParent Review2y ago - North Reading High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter is in 7th grade and loves her teachers. She gets challenging, interesting assignments and a lot of support from the teachers. NRMS had a wonderful "welcome to middle school" program for the parents and another for the kids, with a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. So, our experience is that North Reading Middle School has done a great job. The school does reach out to parents with offers to contribute, but many parents (including myself) are just stretched too far to the next step and to develop the same community feeling that we had in elementary school. The school facilities are older and less attractive, but in 2012 the community approved a major rebuilding program that will complete in 2014.Parent Review13y ago
