We have completed 6th & 7th grades successfully. We are waiting on 8th. I just wish the teachers would not get involved in the 'girls drama' and add to it. Academically, it is impressive. My child hasn't made the all A honor roll, but does maintain AB average. She works hard and has been given extra help when she's needed it. If I were out of area and considering this school, I would definately make the move.

As an educator in the system for 15 years, I have found T. G. Scott to be the most highly functional school system in the county and it is 'World Class'.

The 6th and 7th grade teachers are excellent. Our 8th grade year has been tough. My child had a zest for learning and I think this year has been a waste of time and a motivation killer for my child. I am so glad that we are leaving this school.

This school system is totally negligent in educating children with special needs. Their close minded awareness to this problem causes them to neglect children who need a little extra care. If you have IEP in mind forget it, they talk the talk, but don't walk the walk. Think again about enrolling your special need child!
