6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCambridge has great opportunities and this school definitely makes use of that, with lots of options for students. however, a lot of the teachers are not qualified to be here and should not be working with children. they ignore the students' opinions and we have to do everything ourselves while the principal (Mr smith) writes emails and takes credit for it. a lot of the teachers teach really fast and don't care about other things that are happening in your life. I've heard the extension school is much better, so if you're looking for a public high school inn Cambridge I would go there firstStudent Review4mo ago - Haggerty School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThere are always waitlists for this school, given that it's one of the few bilingual public schools. That perk aside, I have not enjoyed this school whatsoever. There is a stronger community here than at some other Cambridge Public Schools, but it was largely destroyed by COVID mitigation measures. Parents are just not able to participate in school activities. Even my kid's music recital was asynchronous and virtual.The principal is extremely "woke" and there is a lot of political indoctrination in the teaching. My kid is not challenged, and there are limited to no advanced learning opportunities--because #equity, you know.Parent Review1y ago - Rindge Avenue Upper School

"The new MBTA extension will pass through it making it easier for commuters to and from the area into Boston or Medford. It's still a diverse cultural experience with a grand Brazilian shop and other smaller shops (including the reliable market, that's been there for almost 40 years), to give the Square flair and connect many of its diverse residents. I also love the memories I have here, including the Dunkin Donuts that's still there. I also enjoy the convenience of getting into Boston through it."
- Bambi B.
- Resident
- 5y ago
"I walk. If I need to get to Boston, Medford or Cambridge I take the MBTA (bus) to the stations to Davis or Lechmere and then rapid transit to my destinations. In my city we have bikeshare, carshare services and uber/lyft and greencab. It is also cyclist friendly -- they have bike paths and bike sections on the roads to make it easier for these commuters."
