N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have been a substitute several times at this school. It was always my hardest assignment. The students are yelled at continually by their teachers, even at lunchtime. In a 1st grade class, one student insisted I stay with him during class time to assist in his writing assignment. He was later yelled at for talking with me. However, the school does have discipline issues. It was often difficult to keep the attention of students during class time, even in art class. There is a specialist on staff to remove disruptive children from the classroom.Teacher Review6y ago - Skyline Middle School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCan’t help but notice that all these good reviews are from 2014. I too had great things to say about this school in 2014. Unfortunately, it has gone downhill DRAMATICALLY since then. Unfortunately, Skyline is not what it once was and, as a result, the academics suffered greatly.Parent Review2y ago - Dickinson (John) High School
