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 go to this school, and I hate it so much. First off, the teachers are so mean or complete creeps. Second, the lunch is pizza every single day. It gets tiring. Third, you have to pay for EVERYTHING. Like, you're that broke you have to make students pay. Fourth, the people are so immature. Fifth, the teachers are RACIST. Like, straight up, racist. get better at the school, please. Don't even get me started on the Threats. I hate this school.

This school has been an absolute nightmare. The administration has failed countless times to make sure bullying is at bay. My daughter was assaulted and the girl returned right back to school. My daughters friends were playing with their laptops yet she got disciplined. Please avoid this school if possible there are plenty of Paulding middle schools that are far better then this one

I wish they offered PE for all students, allowed recess, or had after school sports teams. The children are confined to the classrooms fro long period doing nothing but school-work. Children are not allowed to burn off energy. I also wish the teachers were allowed to make the lessons fun and not just teach for the children to pass the milestone test. The teachers are pressured to help children pass a test not learn.

My son started going to this school this year and his grades are awesome. He loves the school and all his teachers. Before we moved he hated going to school and everything about it. Now he loves going to school and never wants to miss a day!! They get five stars from me.
