Read what parents are saying about Lowe's Grove MiddleOverall very positive. Many teachers are top-notch and truly care about the overall development of the students, academically and socially. WHen ineffective teachers leave, there have been roadbumps with months of substitute teachers, but once the new teachers are in place the road smooths out! This happens at all schools and is not unique to LGMS. I love the different STEM electives available as well as arts and language.
Posted by a parent on 7/12/2019This school prepares students for the future and I'm a very pleased parent that has sent my daughter.
Posted by a parent on 12/4/2017This is my child's first year at this school and she has been bullied, but yet they say my child needs theropy. No grown man or woman has any busy in an students face call the parent it's an matter of respect. Lowes Grove has great programs but it doesn't mean anything if the teacher's and etc not teaching or like working with children.
Posted by a community member on 12/15/2015My child attended LG Middle 6th grade last year (2014-2015). Fighting and bullying rampant and unchecked. Little to no follow up by teachers. No accountability by staff for school errors. Not a school of technology when they don't even keep their school website updated. You can find old inaccurate info there all the time. This school should be closed or real leadership put in place.
Posted by a parent on 8/20/2015Lowe's Grove Middle School is on the way back up!!!New principal Ms. Mitchell is leading our school in the right direction. She is adding good teachers and students are learning more and more now each day. She promotes a safe and effective learning environment and we appreciate it.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDon't let the "score" of the school fool you - this school is a community and a lovely place. The principal is outstanding and the communication is phenomenal. We were at a "highly rated" elementary school in the district before coming here and while we did not have issues there either, Parkwood has been stood out as a much more welcoming and personal space than our previous elementary school. We've had quick action when any concerns or help has been needed and my child is happy and thriving. What more can you ask for. The grounds are also quite pretty and I see nothing but good things for Parkwood in the future.Parent Review2y ago - Pearsontown Elementary

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is an A school for academics only. This is their only focus. They do not do enough to provide a safe environment for children to learn. Leadership and teachers allow bullying of students. I do not recommend this school for that reason.Parent Review1y ago - Southwest Elementary

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIt’s sad to see what this school has become in a few short years. It used to be a place where black and brown children were nurtured by teachers and staff who cared and who engaged with families. Racial and socioeconomic demographics have shifted, and unfortunately the leadership hasn’t made equity a priority. You’ll see rave reviews, but they’re telling less than half of the story. This isn’t a school that I would recommend for parents of black children, specifically. Luckily there are better options available, but it’s unfortunate that the neighborhood school isn’t the best one.Parent Review1mo ago - AL Huda Academy
