Teachers are great, the staff is wonderful, and the kids enjoy being there and of course learn but have fun doing it!
—Submitted by a parent


Posted January 14, 2006

The best thing about North Myrtle Beach Intermediate School is the Principal, Mr Long. He is a strong dedicated leader. He is easy to talk too and has an open door policy. He will listen to your concerns and do what is in the best interest of the child. Most importantly to him your opinion as the parent matters. Parents of North Myrtle beach are lucky to have him.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 South Carolina used the Palmetto Assessment of State Standards (PASS) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in writing, English/Language Arts, Math, Social Studies and Science. The PASS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of South Carolina. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
