Hoosac Valley Middle School

We were not at all impressed with this school and after one year, chose to send our children to a different school. The class sizes are too large, the teachers seem overburdened, the classroom activities mundane.

Unfortunately, this school is not at all what it advertises itself. The Catholic identity is completely nominal; the students are, on the whole, disinterested and lazy; the teaching staff is cliquey, and not inspired or driven in the slightest; the administration is duplicitous and lacks strong leadership. If employed here, you had better watch your back.The curriculum is wholly generic and un-Catholic and the teachers are not concerned with teaching Truth, Goodness, or Beauty to the students. The teachers have absolutely no direction or leadership from the administration. This is about as milquetoast of a Catholic school as you can possibly imagine. I would not recommend attending or teaching at this school to anyone at all, unless you are not passionate about the Catholic Faith and are looking for a frustrating and boring job.

Would not recommend, school lacks safety protocols and communication with parents, teachers, and administration is sorely lacking in transparency and respect.
