School Reviews
| 1 I was unfortunate enough to overhear how the principle deals with issues and its absolutely disgusting to hear how she talks to other people's children. I hope the school board finds an appropriate principal to lead this school soon. - Posted by Parent - Mb |
| 5 After visiting the school today with my Granddaughter, Selina, for the yearly orientation day prior to the start of school, I must say that I was truly impressed at the organization in the school, the grounds and all the teachers who were so very friendly! They all made us feel so comfortable and welcome. I think we will be happy with Glassford Hills Middle School for the school year 2013-2014. - Posted by Parent - sondr |
