This is one of the best schools in the state of Georgia! It won the Governor's award in 05-06, and the teachers work together so that each student isn't piled up with hours of homework. The halls are color-coded for each grade, so no child can get lost. Malcom Bridge is perfect for your middle schooler.

Posted October 10, 2004

This is a perfect example of a school in trouble. The administrative staff at Malcom Bridge Middle School is the weakest in the district. There is no student or parent support for a better education. The students well being is not a large goal for this establishment. However the teachers at this school overall do a wonderful job.
