My child has experienced repeated bullying at this school, including physical, verbal, and emotional harassment. These incidents have been reported to teachers and administration multiple times. I have formally filed a complaint, yet no meaningful action has been taken to ensure my childs safety. My child has been threatened by both students and staff, which is deeply concerning. The lack of response from administration has allowed this hostile environment to continue. No student should feel unsafe or unsupported at school. I am extremely disappointed in the schools failure to address these serious concerns and protect its students.

Horrible school. Most teachers are either too strict or immature to be teaching. The Bullying was absolutely crazy. (Coming from a person who used to go there.) Not a care for students with learning differences. Only for disabilities they can obviously point out.

My family moved to KW county about a year ago at the end of the school year. Acquinton elementary and Hamilton Holmes middle were excellent in helping myself, the mother, and my children adapt into the schools. I had absolutely no problems with staff or paperwork. My children also quickly made friends. Communication with teachers is very easy. Teachers are very quick to respond to emails and will work with you if you have issues with your child's behavior or grades. It also helps that KW is a small community so you'll quickly know somebody that knows your kid. It's been a year since we moved here and i am highly pleased with the community and school system.

This school has excellent teachers that are encouraging and patient. The teachers have high standards, but do not put too much stress and anxiety on the students. My child has thrived at HHMS.

The school does not seem to care for all of their students. Some of the teachers tend to be just as immature as the students and encourage bullying toward kids they seem to not like. I am planning on moving my children out of this county because of the school.

Excellent school with good learning environment. Knowledgable educators and positive environment. Principals are supportive and caring. Lots of extracurricular activities including chorus, band, robotics, art, drama. High focus on student achievement and accountability.
