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.

Going to Thurman White Middle School was one of the best experiences of my life there I met many friends and amazing people . The teachers were also very nice and helpful to all of the students . Overall they had decent cafeteria and food but the school offered a lot of extra curricular to the students who were interested.

It's a great school. That's perfect for anyone interested in the arts. Sports (mainly basketball) are also held highly at Thurman White.

I feel very disappointed that Thurman white can’t even have an 8th grade ceremony graduation for the students, every school has them and I have asked various staff and no one can’t seem to give me an actual answer as to why the students can’t have a ceremony
