Please read the testimony below from a Grady parent regarding her experience at Grady MS:

 

A few of you have asked me about my Grady experience with my son this year (he loves it and has not only matured, but has become responsible and proactive about his school work and even made Gator Elite while taking mostly AP classes... and some of you know we've struggled for years with ADD and dyslexia).  And few of you have asked me to forward along the website of the 6th Grade World Cultures teacher (because it's an awesome example of the school work at Grady, as well as the interest and involvement of the teachers).  More than 1/2 of my son's teachers are men actually, including Science, Math and World Cultures... and they are all great.

I hope this information will be helpful.  I am always available to answer any questions about school work/education, the AP program, social life, sports and activities, parent involvement, the rebuild (beginning this summer), or whatever else anyone would like to know about our experience this year.  The biggest thing I can tell you is that big changes are ahead, wherever our children go to school.  I have found that in middle school, the kids are required to take control of their own education and progress, and because of that (at least in my experience) they grow so much.  I get compliments all the time on my son and his attitude toward school has changed 10-fold.  We couldn't be happier with how this year has gone and my son wouldn't want to go anywhere else.
