School Overview

Hilsman Middle School sits in Athens, a lively college town shaped by the University of Georgia, where a diverse, creative community gives the city a lot of its character. The school shows more strength in math than English, and families who get involved tend to find opportunities to support their kids' growth in both areas. Athens has a lot going for it — great food, music, and a tight-knit feel — and for families already rooted in the 30605 area, Hilsman is the neighborhood middle school at the center of it all.
