“I have had 4 children attend this school. I like the teachers and the academics. They also still involve the students in sports activities unlike many school districts in the area.”

“My daughter is in sixth grade, we are new to the school district & she has never felt this confident about her abilities. We both feel secure in knowing that if she needs help there is always someone to turn to. School events are planned with such detail & the school staff & administrators do a great job in creating a positive atmosphere. I would not want my daughter in any other middle school. Thank you all, for making things happen. Griffiths is it!”

“This school has been very rewarding for my daughter. She has had experience with a variety of skilled teachers and that has only brought out her confidence. She is now ready for high school and has had the guidance of her teachers in preparation of her choosing her classes for next year. Giffiths is a distinguished school and it does make up for its name.”

“Griffiths Middle School is an excellent school. I am very happy with the progress my son has made while at the school. He is now an eighth grader and he has enjoyed his three year on GMS campus. I look forward to next school year when my daughter will be a sixth grader there. My son said his teachers have inspired him to work harder. Thanks to the staff to GMS!”
