This school is consisted of a faculty that could care less whether your child is being bullied either in or outside of the classroom, or whether your child is failing. I can't believe this school got a 5/10. If it wasn't for the FCAT, and the so called good scores, it is pathetic, if it were my choice I would close down GMS, and send the students to a better school. The faculty and administration are very harsh, for example, if a student has to go to the restroom, but only has 5 minutes, and has to rush because their next class is on the other side of campus, that student would be punished. Now, parents if you have a student that goes to GMS take them out of it. Every day that I went there as a student I was completely tormented and bullied, not just by students, but also teachers. - A former student
I've visited Galaxy one time in my life and frankly it's pretty bad. The students don't seem to click to me and the teachers don't seem professional. I am currently an 8th grader at Heritage Middle School. My school on the other hand scores 9/10 stars and is voted to be the best school in Volusia. If any Galaxy kids want to come to HMS fell free! It's an awesome school with fun teachers and awesome friends. -Melissa
I agree Galaxy Middle School needs alot of work , they said the school wasnt even meeting state standards !!!!!!!!
I have asked for help, none has come this school needs work but is ok help from teachers need to be improved, the school it self needs to be cleaned , so does the students in it, i am a student and i need help but i am ignored
I think this school needs alot of work. Not only the way its runned but the teachers! We learn nothing because the teachers always send us out of class. WE NEED A BETTER SCHOOL !!!
i rate this school 5 stars because i am a 7th grader that is attending this school and the teachers ther will help u till you get it right and that will help u get great grades.
My daughter is in the eight grade this year and since she started in this school has wanted to change schools. In the 6th grade she had a problem with a teacher, which I came to the school, confronted the assistant principal and the teacher and could not keep my daughter in that teacher's class because my daughter felt the teacher did not care to help her in any way and shout it at my daughter for not finishing her work 5 minutes after class started and my daughter was called to leave for a Dr.'s apt. After she was switched from class, the new teacher treated her with respect, talked to her calmly and listened to my daugter's concerns. Also, I have noticed that some teacher's and faculty do not seem to answer your calls and e-mails concerning your child's progress in school or any concern the parent may have.
This school is great but very weird when it comes to the dress code. They allow peircings and guys walk around with shirts on but if your a girl wearing a tank top they make you go to your grades housing office and change into somebody else shirt! And also, while 7th and 8th grade are cozy in nice big buildings with lockers, 6th graders are forced for carry around heavy backpacks portable to portable! And one last thing, They keep it like 80 degrees in the portables!
This school is acutally good. while its true that some teachers dont care about the kids. most of the time they act like that towards the less then educaated kids who are far from just help. but overall for the one year i got to go there it was pretty good sure teachers had their faults but they where good at the job they are hired to do and the kids actully arent that bad i am far from a normal person so if i wasent hating it there im sure most people wont since the year iv been at deltona middle made me realize what a good thing that school was. with that i say for every stupid rule they had there usally was an up side. p.s never goto deltona middle
its a very good school I've been there since the beginning of 6 grade going to the 8 grade
