Very good, easy transition, great teacher Ms. Caldwell. Great principal Mr. Mendoza.

DEFINITELY READ THIS BEFORE ENROLLING YOUR CHILD INTO HAILE MIDDLE SCHOOL - After being identified as gifted in his elementary school with a high IQ, and taught to a contributive student in his nearby elementary school, all was undone in his first year at Haile Middle School. On his first day in computer class he experienced an issue. When he had to ask for help twice, he was told a baby could fix it and to go figure it out himself. He was devastated when he got home. This type of lack of interest from the teachers continued through two other classes. He was bullied constantly with no interest in resolution from the administration. When we picked him up for a dentist appointment, it took 40 minutes to get him to the front door and the office person showed up seeming agitated that she had to retrieve him and wearing a political campaign presidential shirt. He became detatched and unmotivated in the last quarter. We found out near the end of the year that he had missed over 20 assignments. Do you know who informed us of this from the school? NO ONE! Not a teacher, or counselor, or administrator. No one cared. We found it out on our own. This boy, with an extremely high (tested) verbal and non-verbal IQ, had to go to summer school to make up the deficit. For 7th grade, we decided to enroll our son in a different school and he was accepted! We called Haile 3 times to inform them that he would no longer be attending that school and asked for a call back. Not one single call until 3 days after classes started. That call was to tell us our child was truent and that we needed to contact the school. These middle school years are vital and I cannot recommend more strongly that you enroll your son or daughter elsewhere. He is now back to achieving almost all A's and B's with highly engaged teachers and has been welcomed into multiple after school groups.

My daughter went to this high school and now my son will be attending his 3rd year of high school here at BRHS, all I can say is that I love this school, ove of the things I like is the fact that you will not see girls dressed with shorts that look like panties, like other schools does because they don't have a dress code.They're strict in many things, but that's for good.Kids should know that they're going to school to learn, not to a party.
