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.

This middle school is GREAT. I love the school and the band i better thjan North Middle School's band.The Wrestling is also better too. Our school is larger than theirs and actually younger. The staff is nice (and a 6th grade math teacher plays fortnite.) There is also the band teacher who went to high school with Ninja (Richard Tyler Blevins). She even kept the yearbook. We also go to the Grants Pass high school which has a good football team AND a good marching band.

South Middle School is just like any other school in that students who genuinely put in effort and try will receive a meaningful education, while those who don't will just skate right through. The school's administration does its best to instill positive values and provide care to students, however...

My daughter is in the 6th grade so we are new to South. But she is excelling even better than middle school. Has perfect attendance for the first time ever because she is challenged, encouraged and loves her teachers. So far so good!
