Haggard Middle School Reviews

 
Overall, the teachers work very hard with the students. I think there could be a few more extracurricular activities for the 6th graders to participate in, but educationally it's a great school.

The school's smaller size is a plus. Kids and teachers seem able to get to know each other a bit more. There is a large assortment of classes for the high-achieving or gifted student, but electives are rather sparse. If your child doesn't want to go to speech, drama, fine arts route, there's really not much available. Other Plano middle schools seem to offer a wider variety of electives and include practical life skills courses and more technical education. Seventh and eighth graders only have one year of such electives available. The social environment of the school is somewhat unique within Plano. Kids hang out in boy-girl groups more so than at other middle schools. There appears to be a lot more physical affection openly visible around the campus. This can be disconcerting. Students also loiter outside the school after classes let out for the day.

This is a small middle school for the Plano District. The staff and teachers are very well qualified, the curriculum includes pre-AP, honors, PACE, and regulars classes that are interesting and challenging. They encourage critical thinking and community envolvement. There are a variety of clubs and sport for children to participate in and because the school is smaller, they have a better chance of playing. The teachers at this schools are especially warm and caring. I suffered a critical illness while my child was at Haggard. The teachers and staff spent extra time with her to make sure she was ok and frequently emailed me to check on our families situation. It made a really rough time much easier for her to handle and was certainly above and beyond what I would have expected from the teaching staff at any school.

I think that Haggard Middle school is a very Fun school.. My Son and Daughter both enjoyed going there and wish all the fellow student luck!

Haggard is a good school, academically speaking. The teachers are tough but good.

Haggard Middle School was an excellent, smaller middle school until Debbie Holland was made the Dean. She is unfair, rigid.

Our family are new to the PISD this year. Thus far, we are pleased with the overall education that our son is receiving from Haggard Middle School. We are so pleased with the teachers and the quality of advanced programs that this school has to offer. The teachers at this school work very hard to engage and help the students think 'outside the box'. I know that my son is challenged, motivated and excited about school when I hear his enthusiam about the things they are learning and doing. Keep up the excellent work Haggard teachers!

The academic program for students enrolled in regular (not honors or advanced) classes is adequate. Teachers exhibit concern for the most part and strive to help students meet school and state standards. Teachers show a willingness to spend extra time and energy on concepts that the students do not understand. The discipline is above average. Extracurricular programs are high quality.

Great environment and teachers. creative curriculum.
