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.

I have had one son go through and now my daughter, so my experience is 4 years, going on 5. I have seen improvements each year and am happy my children have attended this campus. We love Mrs Risinger and support her in all she does!

Both of my children attended this school and the experience was great. Middle school is a tough time, but the teachers and administrators go out of their way to help kids be successful and feel welcome.

This school is terrible. The teachers can't really teach. The dress code is ignorant, and the disiplinary actions are taken way too far. I wouldn't recommend going to AMS, or any other Athend ISD school.
