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 subbed at South Paulding Middle on two occasions. Each time the administration was helpful and the students were well behaved. This makes for the correct environment for teaching and learning.

Athletic and fitness opportunities at this school is a good outlet for students trying to improve their skills. I think our band gets more funding but the football team is what the fans come to see. Our school spirit has improved a lot in the past 2 years and if there was a athletic facility available or fitness programs it would really encourage students.

So, some parents think bulling goes unnoticed? Maybe because their kid IS the bully. On the whole the school has been fine. I have had no problems with communication, or any thing else. Mrs Webb has always called me back, and the teachers have always responded in a timely manner.
