4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a former student of this school, this school has really made me want to learn while being there. I’d LOVE going and seeing my old teachers, especially in afterschool where I could get to see my friends that went as well. I really recommend this school for ANYONE else’s child. My niece goes here now and she’s having a wonderful time there, the staff likes her because she is related to me (being for real because while being there, staff and even the principal I had liked me). However, I did sometimes get bullied here in 5th grade, but other than that, I still loved to learn here.Other Review2mo ago - William Mulholland Middle School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a former student at Birmingham Community Charter High School I can say with confidence that I am extremely happy that I made the decision to go here for high school. The teachers are very helpful and their lessons make you well-prepared for the homework that is given. Also from my experience they try to sit down with each student that wants to learn and gives them every opportunity to do so. The counselors do much more than switch your classes. They are there when you need someone to talk to and are extremely helpful in determining what classes will benefit you and to give you perspective and positive reinforcement. The administrative staff are always on top of their work and do a great job to make sure that the teachers and ready and equipped to give their students the best learning experience. Birmingham is a community and everyone has a mutual respect for one another. I am still using many things that the teachers taught and the counselors told me to this day. When I decided to give Birmingham a chance I did not know what I was getting myself into. Now I know that I got a great education and friends for life. I also developed professional relationships with multiple staff members to this day that helped me make it to where I am now. Do me a favor, go to Birmingham. I continue to reap the rewards and I am sure you will too!Other Review6y ago
