No one should come to this school they dont care about you and they yell at you for no reason they yelled at me for touching someone but didnt yell at another student for throwing a pencil. You extremely advise you not to go to this school you will regret it. The principal does not do her job right all she does is just yell and they dont care about your safety at all and when you trying to say something they will just yell at you and interrupt you right in the middle of your sentence.

Glenvar Middle is a great place for "tweens" to grow both academically and socially. I am so happy we moved into this school district from another part of the county. Our daughter is doing great in this school. Both principals are outstanding !

Glenvar Middle School has been amazing for my son. The whole atmosphere is very conducive to learning along with a sense of community. The only area I am not happy with, is the curriculum being too closely followed by SOL's and not enough creativity to go off the beaten path. I would highly recommend to any parent.
