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.

do NOT go to this school it is horrible. the teachers (7th grade as far as I know) don't even teach you and expect you to get an A on every test they give you, the students are absolutely horrible, the bathrooms are disgusting, and I don't even know how the school is allowed to give us the lunch that they do. the only thing that's probably good about this school is probably the engineering program but that even has its faults. if your a parent do not enroll your child in this school unless you want them in the engineering program.

Azalea is becoming a brand new school. In the past this school was failing however, now it is passing. The teachers and staff are amazing. They genuinely care about the students as human beings. The engineering program is great to challenge students with PLTW curriculum and showing children how to work successfully with groups. If you want your child to have a great education then I recommend you give the new and improved Azalea Middle School a chance.

The data shown here is old. Much has changed at this school and is consistently getting better. The Aerospace Engineering, Aviation, and Civil Air Patrol programs that have started there over the last 3 years have changed the face of this school. The school grade has increased and will most likely i...

Do not go to this school. I repeat, do not go to this school. I'm a student at azalea, and frankly my experience here has been horrendous! The only good thing here are the teachers, but the general staff are terrible. There's daily fist fights, as well as drug smuggling. Student-base is so bad, its...
