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.

My time at Hoover Midlde school was great. All the teachers were friendly and the school was in a safe area. One thing that they should add more of is clubs and sports. Another thing that they could use some improvement on is getting you prepared for AP classes in high school. Overall, Hoover Middle School is a great school and I enjoyed the time I spent learning there.
