School Overview

Cowan Road Middle School sits in Griffin, a mid-sized city about an hour south of Atlanta that has a tight-knit, small-town feel despite its size. The school shows some relative strength in math compared to its other subjects, but families in the area looking for middle school options will want to weigh it against the broader academic landscape in Spalding County. Griffin itself is an affordable place to put down roots, and families who are engaged and proactive about supplementing their kids' education — through tutoring, extracurriculars, or community programs — tend to make the most of what schools like this one have to offer.
