Briggs Corner

Amazing music and arts programs, especially for a middle school. Tons of great programs, clubs, and sports programs for all grades. Highly recommend it. My daughter is in 7th grade now and is thriving.

We filed a federal complaint against this district for multiple violations against our son and family. The “leadership” and administration within this district is horrifying. No child or family should ever experience what we did. All of our complaints against the district were substantiated and they have been under federal investigation for the past 6 months. I refuse to allow this kind of behavior to continue.

I am a former student of MHT, currently a sophomore at Portsmouth High School, and I can only say good things about this school. I experienced the education of a lifetime here, and I'm convinced there is no other school in the world that could have provided me with an experience even close to MHT. My teachers all provided such a perfect balance of work and play, because the school always knew how to nurture not only a good work ethic, but a good personality too. I came out of the school knowing how to truly think, and make deep emotional connections with people. Despite the last parent's snarky review, the long-standing principal is one of the best you will ever find. Please try to name just one other school where you are greeted at the door by your principal's cheerful face, and also get to learn firsthand from her in the classroom. She is a truly special woman that provided far more than just a good education. MHT prepares you for life as a whole, not just a nice report card on your fridge. Well it also does that, because I am a high honors student at PHS with grades I am proud of, thanks to MHT. All in all, it may have its quirks, but that's what makes it the gem it is. :)
