1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school in itself isn't horrible, but they need to buck up and fix the problems that are so evidently there. Instead of building a new building. Maybe buy new class books. For example, we have a social studies book from 2007. Sorry but things have changed, and so does this school.Student Review7y ago - North Mac Middle School
