Portage Central Middle School

I have one son who attends this school and I could not be happier. They principal and staff have been very supportive of my son. He and I are both having a great experience.

GrandParent, With low scores, how can you be given a high star rating score ?

My 2 kids are loving going to Haverhill! Starting with the Principle; Mr.Zonts truly loves his job, thr school, and students. He is always very visible and involved with daily activities. He does communication meets every morning, so parents know whats going on. The Teacher are supportive for the students and we have had great experience with all but 1 in 5 years. The PTO, is amazing! They are always planning activities for the students to do and getting Everyone no matter who or where your from involved. Haverhill deserves way higher then a 4 rating!! Morea like 9/10

My son is finishing up one year (8th grade) as he attended during Covid. My only regret is we didn’t enroll him sooner.His teachers care deeply for him and the students, and the curriculum is excellent. Because the school is small, scholars are given the benefit of attention. Students are encouraged to excel and their strengths are really highlighted. My son really hit his stride while under the direction of the school’s excellent programming. The principal is at the door every single morning greeting the children. One day this year he wasn’t there. No other school does that. The parent involvement is high. There is a deep sense of community among the children, but also among families. What stands out to me is that people are genuine and authentic. They demonstrate faith, it’s not overwhelming and overdone. I appreciate that.With respect to cost, it is the highest value. The facility is beautiful. The building is very new, as is the equipment. It cost more to have him in daycare as an infant that it costs to give him a high end education now. Money well spent. Highly highly highly recommend.
