Georgia Washington Junior High School

Georgia Washington Junior High School welcomed me, a young teacher. There I found excellent leadership ... quiet and firm. The teachers treated each other and the students with respect. The majority of the students with whom I worked wanted to learn and tried to perform well. However, I must add that the weaker families sent the weaker students to the schools. Those students, unless they possessed an internal drive to better their lives rather than to model their parent or parents, performed poorly and could behave even worse.

this school is sorry all my 3 years at GW i had the worse math teachers now my last year we have mr.palnore. he dont teach all he do is yell i know what i need to be workin on in the summer and thats math........the students are very bad but hey thats any school. i can say i wont be missing this school at all

Extremely dissappointed in this school. Was told it was the best middle school left in Mtgy; if that is true then Mtgy is worse off then most imagine.

The best Junior High left in Montgomery. The student body has issues but the staff works hard to deal with the challenges of being an educator in this school system.

I used to go to GW. I found the students are what really give it its bad reputation, not the teachers or the curriculum. I won't say that it's the absolute best school in Montgomery, but I will say that I enjoyed my stay there. The new principal helped, too...

My daughter went to gw and now my sons go there. I think this is a great school. One of my sons has a learning disability and they really care about his education. The teachers are good and Dr. Reese cares about her students. She has a no bully policy and enforces it unlike some of the other school in our area. I would recommend this school to anyone who lives in the school zone over private school. I feel that a student can get a good education there. My daughter went there for three years and then went into the Magnet program.

Maybe I have had the worst experience here. But I am not impressed with this school at all. I have moved here from michigan and I think this is the worst school ever. I have had nothing but problems since my son started here. My son will not be attending this school next year. I feel he will do better in a private school. I want my son to acheive not just get by and I dont feel he can do that at georgia washington jr high, with Dr. reese in charge. She cares more about the dress code then the academics.

This school is a wonderful school, the teachers can be kinda crabby sometimes but for the most part the school is great. I would highly reccomend this school!
