Grandview Middle is a public middle school located in Grandview, Missouri, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 507 students.

Grandview Middle has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Missouri middle schools, with a ranking between 266 and 311 over the past several years, and a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 36% to 42% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and a key factor contributing to the school's low academic performance.
