School Overview

Veterans Memorial Middle School sits in Covington, a historic small city about 35 miles east of Atlanta that's known for its charming town square and a pace of life that feels a world away from the metro rush. The school lands solidly in the middle of the pack statewide, with its strongest showing in science, making it a decent fit for families who appreciate a well-rounded middle school experience in a tight-knit community setting. Newton County is growing fast as more families move out of Atlanta, so the school reflects that mix of longtime locals and newer arrivals finding their footing in a town with real Southern character.
