Valdosta Middle School
Military Parent: Extremely nice principal and staff. They were very accomidating and our children love the school. The school gets a bad rap from the local realtors. However we choose Valdosta Middle over Hahira Middle after visiting both schools. Very nice facility and top notch teachers that really care. You can't go wrong with this choice.
