After bad experience with the elementary school in South Carolina of Lexington Richland 5 district and also repetitive bullying from other kids directed to our child, we were more than thrilled to move to Virginia and be zoned to Orange County Public Schools- GBES. The teachers and administration are so friendly and professional, they even took our child off the Special needs program (IEP) and made our son and us so welcome and normal ( no different from others). I would like to say thank you for everything they do and thank you for promoting kindness and anti- bullying. And to all the parents, who experience or ever experienced challenges or being treated differently for them and their kids I would say not to give up and keep on researching for better possibilities for you and kids. Never give up and believe in your kids!

Orange is a good experience! It has an older, more experienced staff that (for the most part) does their absolute best to engage their students and make learning fun! The classes are large, which is mainly because it runs the whole county. As far as students go, they are mostly nice people. They may be a little quiet at first, but once you get to know them they're really friendly. As for the bad kids, I wouldn't worry. The new administration at OCHS doesn't play games and addresses all problems as fast as possible. The buildings are kept clean and the school follows safety procedures to the book. As a student from out of state, I consider orange a great school!

The staff at prospect are very rude at times. Children should have a great experience in middle school but instead there is so much bullying that is not being addressed. It is a terrible school. I cannot wait for my children to leave prospect!!
