As a student, my teachers here are great, but the admin here is the main issue. Me and my peers feel as if we have no say in our learning and our experience at Simpson. Our admin feels super out-of-touch with what students enjoy and what makes learning exciting and fun for us, neither do I feel safe
Posted by a student on 5/1/2026Being a student here, I like the overall kindness of the teachers, and they are all really helpful. The area is good too.
Posted by a student on 1/28/2026As a parent who had many kids go through this school I was not impressed. With any school there are some really excellent teachers, and some that should not be in any social setting, much less put in a position to "teach" kids. The gym is dangerous and we have had accidents almost every year. Admin
Posted by a parent on 2/8/2025I love this school and it is amazing. This school has taught me a lot of things this year and I hope many more for the next.
Posted by a student on 5/12/2023I have had the pleasure of knowing so many of the fabulous staff & teachers that work to make JL Simpson such a fantastic school for over 20 years! My daughter is now currently a 6 grader and absolutely loves it…which started from early engagement with the school while she was in 5th grade! I can’t

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAbsolutely fantastic school. Several teachers have been there for years and taught both of our children. They truly know how to motivate, encourage, and treat students with genuine respect and kindness. Many teachers group students during certain lessons to support different learning levels, providing extra help where needed and offering challenges when students are ready. The school offers so many ways to encourage and support both learning and excitement for learning. Each year, the school hosts a “Cool to be Kind” themed fundraiser that inspires students to spread kindness at school, at home, and in the community. Every student even receives a free T-shirt with the message. It is a positive, welcoming school environment where kids truly thrive.Parent Review9mo ago - Heritage High School
