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.

This school was super ratchet. I attended here year 2021-2023, so my 6th and 7th grade year. I never experienced bullying, though I've seen nothing done to stop bullying. I had one teacher that her class literally smelled like weed. I once had spoiled milk during lunch, you can't talk during lunch, and the administration does really nothing to make the school fun. When a teacher is out, the kids are sent straight to the gym. Please save your time.

Germantown have the messiest students and if you're getting bullied, the administrators or teachers ain't going to do nothing to stop and a administrators make the dumbest rules like you cannot talk in the cafeteria and you cannot wear a jacket with a hoodie like that is so dumb and you cannot use your phone at all and if you report bullying, then I go to do nothing bullying you and they just gonna make it worse. I would definitely wouldn't recommend the school.

Very disappointing. My son had no issues at GES but GMS is the opposite. Nothing but problems from day one. Constant schedule changes, teachers do not respond to emails and neither do the principals. Excessive bullying takes place and the teachers ignore it.

I personally am disappointed in the optional program at this school. My child has had a hard time learning here; effectively, that is. Students have no respect for each other, or towards authority for that matter. Students are not given hardly any motivation to succeed. Teachers that do not actually...
