The teachers and staff are pleasant and helpful. They help maintain an orderly yet fun atmosphere. I really enjoyed my stay and will always think back on it as a fond memory. I couldn't have been prouder to be a George County High School Student, and I know that I was miss it; however, I can never go back. I am grateful that this school paved the way for me to pursue my future.

George County staff truly cares about the students and does their best to help them achieve. If I could change anything, I would provide more AP courses.

My experience for 4 years at this school is really amazing. The school is very good at the academics and the sports. We have a high graduation rate and we have been an A graded school for along while. From the staff to the students, what makes up a great school is the people in it, and as long as we are doing our jobs keeping the school as great as everyone says. Then on my part as a student is to do everything I and the rest of the students to keep the school great.

George County Middle School is, despite what they say, an average school. I have had my fair share of teachers who honestly don't care, and others who are incredibly involved and helpful. While the teachers are usually fine, the school is out of balance. Popular students often get away with everythi...
