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.

There are some incredible teachers here that will make you look forward to the day, however there are some that are not as great.

Could use some more funding and recognition for other sports like track, volleyball, and basketball besides football since they don't really win much despite all the money that goes to fund them.

My experience at Germantown has been great overall. I love the atmosphere and people and it helps me want to go to school. The best parts of Germantown were the sports,AP classes, and people. The teachers care to teach us these college level classes and want us to be ready and I've met plenty of friends. Some of the worst parts were lack of funding to certain programs and the food sometimes.

Students are not provided adequate emotional well-being support from teachers who need emotional well-being support. Teachers can not provide provide emotional well-being support if they are in need. I am concerned about our students.

We moved from a great school district in Texas…. The teachers here are responsive, and try to attend to any problems when communicated…. My kids had to play catch-up when we moved…. Curriculum is fairly progressive and we’ve loved our teachers!

I HATE GERMANTOWN! I love that I am changing my children to another school in the district. I had the worst experience with the teachers. They only deal with bullying
