Grayslake Middle School

There are one or two really good teachers. Otherwise, it's simply a place kids need to endure before moving on. If you can live anywhere else, do so for your kids sake.

Great overall school. They could have more extra curricullar activities and figure a better way to integrate Health classes that do not impact the PE schedule.

I was hesitant about this school after seeing it only got a 7/10 but I could not be more impressed with with the way the school is run and how well they are preparing the students after my daughter started to attend. It really should be ranked 10/10! The level of communication and transparency from the principal, vice principal and staff far surpassed all the other Grayslake schools my daughter attended since kindergarten, which were already very good.Unfortunately, we moved mid year and my daughter started to attend a middle school that is ranked #24 out of 1966 schools in our new state. She's had no problems adapting academically and felt the math at new school was nice because it was a bit of a review of what she was doing a couple months ago! To the staff of GMS: Thank you!

Average property tax for grayslake district 46 on a $220000 home is $10108. For that tax rate the school should have a much better rating. I am surprised the residents of grayslake are satisfied with paying one of the highest tax rates in the nation and a middle school with a rating of 6.
