    #4 Best School Districts in Huntsville Area

    Senior: One of the many things that I loved about my school is the smaller class sizes. My graduating class has less than 100 students. Many of the students I've gone to school with most of my educational career. I also feel that because of the smaller class settings, I have been able to have a better relationship with my educators. New Hope High School is definitely a great school and I am honored to be graduating with my friends in a few days...Read 75 Reviews

  5. Decatur City Schools

    • School District
    • DECATUR, AL
    • 27 reviews
    #5 Best School Districts in Huntsville Area

    Junior: Overall, Decatur City Schools is a wonderful school system. Having attended Decatur City schools all my life - as a elementary, middle, and high school student - I can personally attest to their excellence. The academics are top notch. The teachers are knowledge in their field and very dedicated to their students. The classrooms themselves are diverse - filled with all different kinds of people. As an elementary school student, I interacted with African American, Latinx, Asian, and Jewish children, and learned how to tolerate and accept differences because of it. School spirit is very high in general. With most students attending every football game, and most other sporting events. I could barely turn around in my high school without spotting someone sporting a "Decatur High" t-shirt or jacket. The food, however, is awful with administrators looking to cut costs and calories instead of providing truly nourishing and healthy food for the students...Read 27 Reviews

    • 11 reviews

    Senior: I would like some teachers to take more effort, but overall the district was a great experience. I have went to the schools since the beginning. I have always loved going to west. I have a concern about the lunch food tho I feel as if it could be better. It's not that good, and this year with the covid-19 they can take advantage of the proportions that they are giving kids and especially for us high schoolers it's not enough to even settle out stomachs...Read 11 Reviews

    The Academy of the Holy Cross

    • Private School
    • KENSINGTON, MD
    • 9-12
    • 171 reviews

    Parent: The Academy of the Holy Cross has been an excellent place for my daughter. She has blossomed into a confident and intelligent young woman. Although her time is coming to an end this year, we feel that AHC has made an indelible impression on her. She has made lifelong friends that she will carry throughout her life. The girls come to depend on one another and support each other through the school year. ...Academically, my daughter was challenged, but the teaching staff was always willing to assist any student in need. They also recognize students for their hard work and offer words of encouragement. Attending an all-girls school gives young ladies strength, independence and drive that is incomparable to any other. The college counseling department is dynamite! They listen to the student/family and recommend schools that meet the student's needs. I highly recommend AHC to any family looking for a high school for their daughter...Read 171 Reviews
