Education
Education in Germantown is multi-layered and abounds in choices. Germantown is home to schools in both the Germantown Municipal School District (GMSD) and Shelby County Schools, three primary-level private schools, five special needs schools, nine preschool programs, a healthy homeschool population, the Union University Germantown campus and a variety of children’s and adult continuing education offerings from many sponsors. The leaders of many of these schools have expressed a desire to hold regular meetings to coordinate plans and share opportunities. Education providers in Germantown can only benefit from this continued cooperation and diversity.
