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.

It was a bad experience at SMS with teachers and leaders.

I had a very bad experience at this school. Some teachers were nice others were not. Bullying was a big problem for me, and no one seem to care that I was having problems. The classes were very hard, and not all teachers would help me. I feel I would take homeschooling because of this school.

We had such a terrible experience at SMS, and not just one incident. Over and over. My son attended here for 7th and 8th grade. He has some subjects that he struggles with. We enrolled him into a Math Lab class for first semester to get some extra understanding. He earned a 68% in Math that semester...

My school is amazing. The staff is helpful friendly especially my Science, English and Math teachers. The Principal and Assistant Principals are also amazing. Thanks for all you do. Thanks, Joseph Aydelotte 2014 8th Grade Vice President
