Posted by a student on 10/1/2025.Hello, i'm going to tell you my opinion of this school from the point of view of someone who used to be a student at Clayton. (i'm now a freshman). Clayton may be one of the worst schools i've ever attended. I've moved around so ive been to many different schools, none of them would even compare to
Posted by a community member on 10/21/2024very bad, lots of fights, plenty of substance use, not great teaching methods, slow and hard to get around school, bathrooms suck, and you get 3 passes to go to the bathroom a week. bullying is sure a issue, and all this is said from a student attending this school currently. this school sucks. plea
Posted by a student on 6/4/2024I don't even know where to begin to affectively discourage anyone from sending their child to this school. The culture needs a complete and total overhaul. The administration is AWFUL - non-supportive, uncaring and disengaged. The environment is one of violence and filthy disrespect and it will make
Posted by a parent on 12/18/2023Our experience with Clayton Middle School has been mixed. The teachers are generally caring, compassionate, and eager to teach the students. The issue this year seems to be the attitude of the students, which is causing major teacher burnout. Student behaviors and attitudes are egregious. The lack o

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son attended a special education pre-K program at this school and it was an absolute nightmare. His teacher honestly did care and did the best that she could, given how it seems that everything else about this school was working against her. She honestly deserves to work for a better school.Unfortunately, for every good thing I could say about his teacher, I have a bad thing to be said about the TA she was stuck with. This person has no business working with children, she actively hated the kids in the class and would routinely insult and debase them. The other teachers would routinely mock the kids in that class (more than once during drop off and pick up, I heard other teachers referring to the classroom as "the stupid kids class"). Bullying was rampant. There was one incident where my son literally had his face shoved into the ground while teachers just watched.Add to that a general refusal of anyone at the school, other than his teacher, to ever reply to an email or return a phone call (we never once got an update on IEP accommodations), and you'll find that this school is perfect for the parent who wants to just drop off their kid and forget that they exist for the rest of the day, but a horrible choice for everyone else.It was so bad that my son, at 4 years old, learned how to force himself to be sick (not just pretend to be sick, he actually made himself sick) to be able to get sent home so he didn't have to spend more time at the school.This school is the reason that I'm so incredibly grateful that my son was one of the lucky people who got selected in a charter school lottery, because if he didn't, we'd be figuring out a way to home school before submitting him to this school, because I honestly consider willingly sending your kid here to be a form of child abuse.Parent Review1y ago - Hunter Lake Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI used to go to this school, and my siblings are currently here. They love going to school, and their teachers are amazing and work super well with the kids! The older kids, while they might start going through puberty and mood swings, still enjoy going here and would love to go here again!Other Review3y ago - Mamie Towles Elementary School
