Middle Creek has its pros and cons. I would say around half of the teachers are excellent, and the other half to put it simply, are not. The bathrooms are nasty, but I guess that is to be expected. The school is relatively safe, although "stuff " is used. There are good sports, and extracurriculars, such as theatre, and clubs. The equipment in the classrooms is pretty old and out of date, and some is entirely damaged. For the most part, the kids here are kind, but of course, some people can be mean. I would say, all in all, Middle Creek is a fine school.- Current Middle Creek Mustang

My oldest is finishing his last year at HRES before moving to HRMS. I cannot say enough good things about the teachers at this school. For both of my kids, every single year, I've been blown away by the incredible professionalism, teaching passion and sincere compassion for the kids that their teachers have shown. They are just incredible. The dealt with the move to virtual with such positivity and creativity, making the most out of a hard situation. Again this year, with required masks and other rules, they have managed to maintain the highest standards of teaching--my kids genuinely miss school when they have to be out for a sick day. Personally I don't think the principal is approachable. The VP seems to be though. I think the front desk staff is also kind of short with people (parents and the kids I see coming through) - but I rarely deal with any of those people and it is a small price to pay for the incredible teachers at HRES. Highly recommend quality of education and just feeling good about your kids being in their care all day - while teachers are NOT daycare, the fact is that our kids are under their care and I couldn't ask for a better experience for my kids.

We have been so happy here at Holly Ridge Middle School. Teacher and Administration look for ways to teach students independent, there is excellent communication from the staff here. I've read some of the other reviews, and middle schools have the same issues all over. We have not had any negative experiences and have loved out time here at HRMS There are volunteer opportunities, and ways to get involved here if parents have the time.
