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.

My child went here for 3 years. I thought it was a great school. They have lots of programs. My son played soccer and ran track there. They offer theater, band, art and have clubs. The teachers are excellent and very nice. The principal is super!

My son has been at East Wake Middle for 3 quarters now and we have had such a positive experience! His teachers care about him, communicate well and the principal has an open door policy! We are so very happy to be here!
