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.

My experience at EPMS was great. I left in 2012 to go to EPHS. I love East Paulding and all of the staff. I had a great support system when I was there and wish I could go back!

I have an 8th grader and 6th grader at EPMS. The 6th grader has struggled big time with being bullied and fitting in with peers. The 8th grader has done well his whole time. Teachers in all grades have been beyond AMAZING (with very few exceptions) for both kids.
