Peachtree Ridge was a new school for me. On first day, I was so scared that I won't make any new friends. I was shy to speak, surprisingly, people came up to me and introduce themselves. That was how I met my first group of friends. The school is very diverse, we have a population of every race in our school, this is something that hardly sees in most of Georgia high school. Also, my Orchestra teacher helped me when I was lost in hallways, even Seniors took me to the class. I am very thankful. I knew teachers along with other faculty was there for me. I feel safe in this new home, everyone is accepting me. Our school also have good sportsmanship and every students have the equal opportunity to achieve goals. Most teacher was there after and before school to help students, giving us the best environment to learn. Our principle Dr. Mathews gives out encouraging messages every morning, believe that we are all unique young people; one day, we will be successful. Go Lions!
Review Peachtree Ridge High School
Personally having an endless amount of amazing experiences with the faculty and staff at Peachtree Ridge High School, I can proudly say that the teachers are among the most inspirational people that I have ever met. Constantly engaging and freely communicating with my teachers as a student at school, I can tell that my teachers want to know me not only academically but also personally such as my hobbies and what extracurricular activities I am passionately involved in. I enjoy building relationships with the teachers at Peachtree Ridge because of the wide range of knowledge that I can absorb from them. As a full-time student, I am excited to go to school everyday knowing that my classmates and I will be doing something different each day. My teachers are always finding new ways for their students to grow through learning, from using technology like SmartBoards to engaging fun group activities, the teaching styles are never ending!
My overall experience at Peachtree Ridge has been spontaneously amazing. What makes the Ridge so unique is that as we chant, "There are good ships and wood ships, ships that sail the sea, but the best ship's are friendships, may they always be", we become a unified student body. As an intensely school spirited school, we love competition and are not afraid to tackle challenges. This is what I love about my school. No matter what the obstacle may be, whether it be facing a rival football team or even studying for an upcoming AP exam, we are always there for each other no matter what. There would be no other high school that I would choose to attend if I could do it all over! Peachtree Ridge is a school like no other- the high school everyone should personally experience themselves!
