Gordon Lee Middle School

At GLMS, we are proud to carry on a “Tradition of Excellence.” Through high expectations, strong academics, and a supportive school community, we help every student develop GRIT, encouraging them to persevere through challenges, overcome obstacles, and grow into confident, capable learners prepared for success.

Gordon Lee Middle School is dedicated to excellence and sets high expectations that inspire every student to reach their full potential. At GLMS, a culture of “never settling for good enough” motivates both students and staff to strive for success. Our rigorous academic program, including honors classes and advanced language arts, challenges students to excel and reach their highest capabilities.

At the heart of our school is our incredible faculty, whose passion and expertise prove every day that they are truly the best teachers in the state. GLMS reflects a partnership between dedicated teachers, hardworking students and a committed community that prioritizes high-level achievement.

GLMS offers a TED program (Trojans Excellence Development) and it is a one-of-a-kind, data-driven course exclusive to Gordon Lee Middle School, specifically designed to meet the individualized needs of every student. By utilizing advanced technology and real-time performance data, this innovative class provides a personalized learning experience that targets specific areas for growth and mastery.

The school boasts a dynamic athletic program that offers a wide variety of sports, consistently excelling in every arena of competition. As a powerhouse within the North Georgia Athletic Conference (NGAC), our teams are known to dominate the field, court, and track, proving that our "Tradition of Excellence" continues through our athletic achievements just as strongly as it does in our classrooms.

Beyond the textbooks and the test scores, our core philosophy is rooted in the simple, powerful act of just loving kids. We strive to create a supportive environment where every child feels seen, supported, and valued, ensuring that their personal growth is just as prioritized as their academic achievement. By combining this heartfelt support with a drive for excellence, we prepare our students to lead with resilience, character, and integrity in everything they do.
