This school system is terrible! Their grading scale is 7 points and my child's science teacher shows the class inappropriate pictures. (Mrs.Saunders) Do not send your child here. Worst school system ever! I thing WGMS needs a ton of updating and to fix their heating /air conditioning system. My child Often complains about the rooms being to hot or to cold.

My wife and I relocated to Northern Virginia from Central Virginia in Dec 2008. Our previous school district had great leadership, innovative teachers, and diverse student activities. My wife and I were concerned about the school rating but willing to give the school the benefit of the doubt. Since the beginning my middle school daughter has been bullied and teased by her school mates. We have had numerous conversations with counselors concerning the way the students communicate. In Jan 2011, my wife and I met with the principal to discuss our views. It was the most unprofessional conversation I have had in my adult life. The principal was more than 45 minutes late for an appointment that his office booked. He was defensive, inmature, and rude. He insisted that his school was great because they got high scores on the state tests and recommended that we removed our daughter from his school. My wife and I were disappointed with his actions and will remove our daughter from the Fredericksburg School District for her high school years. I have nothing but accolades for the staff of Walker Grant Middle School but not the principal.
