We moved to the GISD school district when our kids were in 3rd and 8th grade. Moving was hard for them, but the support they received from the schools here was priceless, first at Benold Middle School and McCoy Elementary, and then continuing every year as both girls attended Georgetown High School.Mr. Johnson and all the APs are kind, friendly, and supportive, and they make a real effort to know students and families personally. The teachers at GHS are exceptional. The coaches have been mentors and champions for the kids, helping them grow in mindset, life skills, responsibility, and character, as well as in their sport.There are so many opportunities for students to get involved in clubs, sports, extracurricular activities, and areas of personal interest. I am truly grateful for the faculty and staff at GHS and for the GISD district as a whole. I would highly recommend GHS and am so thankful for our years here.PS - The FRC (future readiness complex for STEM and electives with hand-on learning) is AMAZING and a GIFT to the district and High School students.

My student has 6/20 students in her 5th grade class that her special needs. I feel that this distracts from the rest of the class's learning as the teacher and other students must wait to help the special students with more understanding and learning. The kids that need special education should in fact have a special education class that they can go to, they should not be mixed in with the other students, they are special for a reason, and not in a bad way.Furthermore, the children no longer have grades in the classes. They have a "mastered" or "approaching" next to the different categories that they have gone over. I can't disagree with this more. Why is there no homework? Why do we have no grades on the assignments? Why is the learning curve so steep? I wish I could afford a private education for my child at this point. I feel like she is beyond held back by this school specifically. Maybe it's the entire GISD, maybe it's just Frost Elementary.They've also stopped calling holidays by their name as of this year. Last year they had no problem saying Halloween or Thanksgiving, now it's all politically correct nonsense.

Both our kids attended Forbes and we had a very good experience. Our kids were engaged and felt safe. The teaching was effective and the learning environment positive.
