Read what parents are saying about Tanglewood MiddleCulture of school - bullying, fights daily and my child has been impacted socially and academically after transferring almost 3 months ago. Believe the low rating. I am desperately trying to transfer him from this school.

Posted by a student on 5/7/2023My son assisted to the old Grady middle not called “ Tanglewood Middle” , I couldn’t ask for more . This is a great school, amazing people , clean environment , amazing neighborhood.
Posted by a parent on 11/18/2022This school is a great , and the teachers are very helpful in questions , tho sometimes they can be rude to students who dont understand and need to be guided . This has good students but everyone here is kind of antisocial , but people are very warm and welcoming if you get to known them. Overall this school isnt perfect but its very good , 4 stars!
Posted by a student on 5/13/2021My child came from Briargrove and this is her 3rd yr at Grady. Her 6th grade yr was great. She was happy and excited about going to school. Towards the end of 7th she wasn't too thrill and now 8th she just can't stand the school. Just like every school you have some teachers who care and others who don't. We have had issues with 2 teachers. She felt she was being bullied by one and just picked on or singled out by the other. She has came home telling me horrible stories of adolescent sex in restrooms and drugs on campus. None of this is communicated to the parents. The principal is tough and stays on top of everything. I must say. When I have had issues I get a response fairly quickly. They also focus on STARR testing. Lots of extra curricular activities. The new campus is great. Kids are no longer in T-buildings. You have your good and bad wherever you might go.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGreat neighborhood school, very involved PTO (parent teacher organization) with lots of programming for kids and parents. The current principal, Mrs. Jones, has done a fantastic job of bringing in new programs - basketball team, cheer team, and hired a great music teacher, Mrs. Tillman, who put on at least 5 different shows, including a holiday show, with the kids for parents. Mrs. Tillman also chairs the school choir. Teachers like Mrs. Orzabal, Mrs. Russo, Mr. Galle, Mr. Yolland, and Mrs. Molina who have been at this school for over a decade, and many others, are what makes this school great for our kids.Parent Review2mo ago - T H Rogers School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTh Rogers has been a fabulous school for my kids. We have seen them grow up here and develop skills, intellect and confidence. It may not be suited to every child. For kids who are motivated and bright this is a great school.Parent Review2mo ago - School at St. George Place

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been very unhappy with the new administration at Fay. Turnover is at an all time high. We knew the curriculum was a bit dated when we started,but hoped it would improve. Unfortunately, there is no focus on the children, curriculum or aspects of substance. It's about logos, networking and trying to accelerate the new head's career. The current administration had no prior experience running a school and it definitely shows. Some of the inappropriate and out of touch comments that have been made have been cringe worthy. Likely appropriate for a southern frat house in the 1990s, but highly culturally insensitive now. The school continues to enroll students because of it is only one of the few secular private schools, but it has always had a reputation for the school that you go to when you don't get into your first choice or don't want a church school. The public schools in the area are better with higher caliber curriculum, administration, goals, mission, awareness and all around development.Parent Review4y ago - River Oaks Baptist School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love ROBS! Our family has moved around a bit for career purposes. ROBS is the third private Christian school we have attended. It is by far the best school experience yet! We have now been at the school for a couple years. The teachers have been such a blessing - they are extremely supportive, patient, and knowledgeable. The thorough and genuine communication they provide is always appreciated. The whole community has been very welcoming during our time at ROBS. My children also love the amount of special area classes offered and enjoy the after school programs. Our family could not be happier. Our children are truly excited to go to school each day.Parent Review3mo ago - Montessori - Day Care School
