Wonderful school, the upcoming place to be. Rigorous learning and caring teachers. They continue to take accolades in every area. Go Troutman!

One of the best principals that I have had the good fortune to volunteer with. He is committed to making this school great and works hard to achieve any goal that is placed before him. He is funny, caring, intelligent and keeps the school in total control. No school is perfect but this one is close to it. There are some really great teachers at this school. Troutman is expected to be one of the fastest growing communities and with this influx of business professionals, the school has also seen a growth in parent involvement.

I am a parent here at Troutman Middle School. We have a wonderful principal, who believes in supporting our school, keeps thing under control but also knows how to have fun. The teachers are great. We could use more money and support. The facility needs updating! We need more funding. Our principal is doing all that he can.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 North Carolina used End-of-Grade (EOG) tests to assess students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math, and grades 5, 8, and 10 in science. The EOG is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of North Carolina. Students must pass the grade 8 EOG test in order to graduate from high school. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level on the tests.
