I attended Great Bridge Middle School during 8th Grade, and the teachers were amazing. It's something you'll miss later on in high school and potentially later on.

This school is filled with amazing teachers and kids that are there not just to learn but to spend time with their friends in their favorite classes. Not every middle school has that enjoyable environment that eighth graders will miss when leaving for high school like Great Bridge Middle School does. GBM is surely the place to grow up.

Worst school any one of my children have attended. Crime and bullying is a huge problem and leadership is highly tolerant of it. If there are 99 effective ways to deal with a problem, leadership will choose the one that clearly won’t work. No accountability, everything is about delegate, deny and di...

As a military family that has moved several times and been in over 6 schools, this school is by far the worst. The leadership is clueless, safety is NOT a priority, students are not held accountable for their actions and the list goes on. The teachers have been pretty good-definitely responsive to e...
