School Mission
- Grassland Middle School exists to prepare students to be life-long learners and responsible members of society. We accomplish this by providing students an opportunity to engage in an edifying and supportive learning environment and by increasing the protective factors for students while decreasing the known risk factors. As a result students are able to achieve academic success and to demonstrate exemplary character both on and off the GMS campus. These elements will contribute to students’ ability to attain at least one year’s academic growth as well as to meet or exceed NCLB average yearly progress as outlined in the district assessment snapshot in the Master Plan for Williamson County Schools.
