5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIn my experience, this school is not well managed. My child has been bullied and ( because of the fear of powerful parents ) I was told it was my responsibility to make sure my child is safe . 6 grade child who is offered laced drugs on school premises. Fights and chaos nothing else . Few good teachers, nepotism is the rule. So if you not from this region do not believe the globalization bla bla....these folks have no idea where DC is....and New York is a far concept filled with obnoxious people....in short stereotypes have a long way and bullies have the power. My child was transferred .Parent Review11mo ago - Middletown High School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAmazing School! This school is one of the best schools I've ever attended in my life. As a current student, you get along with students better, teachers encourage teamwork, and most importantly, no fights. The staff are extremely polite, they provide support whenever you struggle, and they even prevent fights before it starts. Teachers make classes engaging, students are actively working, and you even get to join clubs! Teachers even give you all the time you need to work on assignments, and even make it easier if you struggle. There is a higher chance of graduating in high school if you attend this high school. Even thought this school is positive, the only complaint I have is for the principal, he speaks in a pretty rude manner, but I don't really mind. If you have a kid or are an incoming freshman, I strongly recommend you to attend this school. It is clean, disciplined and positive.Student Review10mo ago - Townsend Early Childhood Center

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy Granddaughter is 10 in 5th grade and being bullied and the school ignored it and hid it. Then one the bulling girls Threatened to Kill my Granddaughter in writing on a piece of paper that she turned into the teacher plus verbally to other students. Well the school and district was useless they hid behind there code of conduct and did not suspend the aggressor or do anything. There solution was to move the girl to another seat in the same classroom with my Granddaughter, so my granddaughter will see her everyday all day. to open that wound everyday. We contacted the district head of schools and he passed the buck and would not get involved. We are still trying to get this girl expelled and moved but with no luck, we have contacted the police and lawyers to see what we can do to solve this issue with the school and district hiding from this issue. This cant be the first time this happened to students in this district, send your kids somewhere else if care about there safety, because APPO District on cares about there ratings not there Students. as of February 6th 2025 we are still dealing with this issue and we contacted Matt Meyers (governors office) office for help too but nothing yet. Beware of Appo school districtParent Review1y ago
