This school is great as long as your child has no medical problem and can work by themselves. There are many good teachers at this school who do care and try to help. All that being said there are issues. The head nurse refused to call us back two different times. We have to call, and call & call, oh, yea and call again till you happen to reach her in person. When trying to get help for my child the head nurse suggested I home school. The principal suggested to someone else that we were just keeping my child home at the slightest thing. My child has a doctor diagnosed health condition that makes certain things hard. They never did provide any help. The administrative & nursing side of the school is a one star in my book. That does not translate to the teachers though. I would give the ones we have dealt with 5 stars. They put up with a lot from students and administration. I am just going to average a three star on the rating but it depends on whether it is the administrative side or the teachers.

Garrett comunity school is a great place! The teachers and faculty are outstanding. Alll of the students get treated equally and get the attention they need. I am a student at Garrett Middle School and I do believe that this school could be one of the best schools out there because of the over whelming time and effort that everyone puts into their day! We could always use more friends here so come on over! :)

This is a horrible school. The teachers are not willing to work with you. The nursing staff they have can't do their jobs properly. They made my son walk around school all day with a broken finger and didn't even call me. They want the kids to all act the same and be little robots, nobody can be different. When you do ask for help they go through the motions then blow you off after. I am so glad to be moving at the end of the school year so that my children will no longer have to attend this school.
