GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

McDougle Middle's Fines Arts Department is the best in the state. They offer Art, Band, Chorus, Drama, and Orchestra. All of the teachers are fantastic. The choir performed at Carnegie Hall last year. All ensembles and classes give numerous performances each year.

our experience as students at McDougle Middle as been an okay experience. Some teachers need to have a little bit of respect for students. They feel that since there kids they can treat them any type of way. the clubs that are there are really nice they make everybody feel included.
