My daughter attended GCISD all through elementary and Heritage Middle School for 6th and 7th grade. What a great experience and excellent foundation she experienced. Everyone from the office staff, teachers, counselors and Principals all went above and beyond. We will forever look back with gratitude. I just wish we didn’t move to Frisco, where we learned not all schools and districts compare to GCISD. A bit of a culture shock seeing the difference. Therefore, thank you Heritage Middle School for everything. You made a huge difference in my daughters life and future. We genuinely thank the entire staff for everything you do for the students. Please know your efforts and dedication absolutely makes a difference every day, every year, and with every student. You are more appreciated than you know.

My child Is gifted and also has some learning differences. This school has let my child fall between the cracks. The teachers my child has had have been hit or miss. Their first year here the teacher was great. First grade teacher was not good. She was very strict and had my 1st grade ADHD child sit out from recess to finish their work... She's an older teacher in the school and seems to be burned out. Then 2nd grade; Miss Fortune was the absolute best! You could tell she loved being a teacher, put her heart into it and truly cared about her students. Unfortunately she's since left to teach elsewhere. Fifth grade started out great, then as the second half of the year rolled around my students grades dropped drastically to failing. It now seems as though they are annoyed with my child so much so that my child told me "my teachers think I'm lazy and stupid." (clearly not the case, as they test in the top 95% of their peers.) They are just not engaged my kid... While in meetings the VP either lied to me or is unaware of TEA laws. Teachers and administration all use different forms of communication and it's extremely difficult to keep up with everything because of it. If you have a neuro-diverse child stay away!

I do not recommend this school if your kid is a minority and want to thrive in sports.
