  • I love how inaccurate the brief decription is. Saying everyone is in Free or Reduced lunch is ignorant and rude. Only about 30% percent is on that program.
    Martinsburg has the best art programs in the Eastern Panhandle. Theres no question about that. Success depends on whether or not you wanna take advantageof opportunities available to you here. It's the kids decision to take advanced classes and make good friends, not the schools.

  • I am currently attending Martinsburg High School, and although the school itself isn't the best, if you find the right friends while attending the school, it isn't as bad as it seems. The principal may be horrible, but they have a lot of extracirricular activities, and there's something for almost everyone. MHS isn't always as bad as it seems.

  • I am a graduate of Martisnburg High School and I am very disappointed in the quality of the school. I chose to send my children to another Berkeley County High school.
