I am currently a student at SGMS. Snelson Golden is an okay school. I've attend Snelson since 2007, which was my 6th grade year, and the school was still the same then. The amenities are good. The SGMS Chorus is something I would perfer a child to take part in. The chorus teacher is excellent with music and the teachings of music. I'm not trying to flaunt the chorus, but im in the chorus. Well their are some things I have to say about Snelson and Thank You for reading my review.

Snelson-Golden Middle School in my opinion still needs a lot of work. Although after numerous attempts to get certain things in order for my child to achieve this so called 'superb' education, I still find there are flaws in the system. If a child is border-line pass or fail there should be something set up between the teacher and the parent that would ultimately help the child achieve the next grade. After sitting with the faculity at the beginning of the year and explaining to them that my child likes to hide things such as i.e. progress reports, homework, and tests I needed to establish something that I could monitor on a weekly basis. This was to alleviate a shock when report cards came out and we all know by then its to late. They have failed dramatically in this department.

Snelson-Golden Middle School (SGMS) is a superb educational institution due to its rigorous academic requirements, parent-teacher contact, and academic support. SGMS teachers have high expectations for each middle grade student. Consequently, Snelson-Golden made AYP for six consecutive years. This accomplishment is a direct reflection of our students' willingness to accept the challenge to succeed and our teachers' tremendous determination to foster the best in each child. Our parent-teacher coordinator ensures teachers regularly communicate with parents. Finally, the school offers group tutoring sessions, and many teachers provide one-on-one tutoring sessions. Snelson-Golden strives for academic excellence. 'A Great School'
My daughter has been a this school for 1 year. She was on the advanced team for 6th grade and loved her teachers. They seemed to be very involved and had some interesting projects for the students. She has always struggled a bit in math and I have to say this was her best year ever in that subject! She was in chorus and the teacher is great! A good school in my opinion.
