1 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: At the Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology, there are a ton of opportunities to expand your horizon. To enter the school, students in Gwinnett County must enter a lottery in order to enter GSMST. If they are chosen and fulfill GSMST's requirements, they can enter GSMST their freshman year. Students cannot enter any other year. A lot of the focus goes into its science and technology departments. During Freshman and Softmore year, students will take two engineering classes as part of the curriculum. During their Junior and Senior year, students will take two internships in any area they choose. GSMST also offers almost all AP courses and will always offer students opportunities for achievement. GSMST is a very rigorous school. Several AP classes are required, and all the classes are taught at an accelerated level. The school is not meant for those who may want more time in the day for other activities other than school.

2 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Alum: Buford High School is a very good school. I would recommend it over other schools in the Gwinnett County area. It is a public school in Gwinnett but if you do not live in Buford city, you will pay an out of district cost. I was a transfer student and my parents paid for out of district for two years and then we moved into the district of Buford. I definitely feel like I benefited from transferring from my last school. Our principal had a strong code of ethics and with no tolerance for any drug, alcohol, bullying, any type of weapons and more. Graduated and happy with the classes, courses, and friends made along the way. Now here I come Georgia Southern University!

Senior: My overall experience at Bremen High School has been great! I have really enjoyed attending school here since kindergarten. Everyone at school is welcoming with open arms. My favorite thing about Bremen is the community involvement. No matter the situation or event, the entire community is behind the person, team, or organization competing or participating.

Parent: My children all LOVE going to school at Harvester! They have access to a robust list of extracurricular activities, well-rounded education that requires them to apply themselves, and teachers that truly care about their success. As a parent, I enjoy interacting with a highly responsive staff, from administration, to teachers, to the business office. The school's motto is "Training hearts to lead and minds to serve" and their staff embody this principle in their day-to-day interactions with parents. We have thoroughly enjoyed our first year and are looking forward to our next - hopefully with even more students involved!

4 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: Walton High School has inspired me to strive for success in all aspects of my life. The goal of the teachers and administrators is to inspire students to be successful in their classes in addition to giving back to the community. The teachers push students to be studious, but also honest. Academic integrity is an important value at Walton, and students are required to write our honor code at the top of each assignment and assessment we turn in to our teachers. Undeniably , Walton has a reputation for being a challenging school. However, I firmly believe that each student can shape their high school experience to their liking. There are a variety of on-level, honors, and AP classes that students can pick and choose from. In addition to academics, Walton has many extracurricular activities available for students. Some popular clubs are Model UN, Habitat for Humanity, and Walton Community Outreach. The sports programs at Walton are another excellent way to spend time outside of class.

Senior: I absolutely love North Oconee. I have been attending since I was a freshman and am honestly sad to leave after this year. I do feel completely ready for college but it will be sad to leave this awesome school. In my three years (so far) I have had no complaints. The teachers are great and care about the students success, students are awesome, clubs and oppurtuinities are endless, and athletics are great too. I would recommend this school to anyone and everyone!

7 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: North Gwinnett High School is unlike any other. The students are happy to learn and communicate with their teachers, advisors, counselors, and peers. This is an overwhelmingly competitive school in many aspects including sports, academics and social endeavors, but it pushes its students to be the best they can be. It has proven, over the past four years I have been in admittance, to grow and develop tremendously in extracurriculars as well as academics and creates a balance between the two. The classes range from standard, to online, to AP and dual enrollment at local colleges depending on what you plan to do in the future, and everyone is treated with respect and kindness. Opportunities at this school are exponential and never ending. I love North Gwinnett High School.

Northview High School

9 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: Students at Northview have a lot of ambition, which generally translates to them pushing themselves academically. On the other side of the coin, this also causes a lot of cheating and cutting corners within the school, as well as unhealthily high levels of stress and sleepless nights. Furthermore, the atmosphere at Northview emphasizes good grades over actual intellectual stimulation, and rote memorization over creativity or divergent thinking. Because of Northview's diversity, people can generally find friends and groups that they can get along with, and most people tend to be extremely tolerant of groups traditionally ostracized by society (the student body is more liberal than conservatuve; however, as this is Georgia, the conservative population still has a significant presence); despite this, the general environment at the school is cutthroat.

Senior: The academics are wonderful at Lake Oconee Academy. Teachers are always willing to work with a student and are reasonable for deadlines. Grades are very important at the school and the teachers want you to succeed. Hopefully, in the future the school will be less cliqued and more social in its student body.

11 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: My experience at Chattahoochee High School has been a great one! I transferred to Chattahoochee High School from Seaholm High School in Birmingham, Michigan at the start of my Junior year in high school. I started my study of architecture, and I completed my study of Mandarin Chinese at Seaholm. So, I was very apprehensive about moving to a new state and a new school, but my Mom had a better job opportunity in Georgia. Chattahoochee welcomed me as a new student, making the transition much easier. I have been able to continue my study of architecture and take an acoustic guitar class. I have made some great friends. The staff and teachers are awesome! My architecture teacher, Mr. Mervich has helped me to significantly improve my architecture skills. I would recommend Chattahoochee to any student who wants to be in a friendly, diverse environment with excellent academic and artistic opportunities.

Senior: Alpharetta High School has been a great experience. The school has a vast number of different cultures and ethnicity which makes it a more inclusive environment. There are many extra curricular activities, such as sports, clubs, and other activities to choose from. The teachers are very easy to talk to and allow the students to be engaged in the classroom. The theater department also host several numbers throughout the year which are very entertaining. The grounds are kept clean and even the security officers are really nice. There is plenty of student parking which is often an issue at other schools. It’s definitely a top school in the North Fulton County area.

14 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: I have been a student at Etowah for four years now. In my opinion, the school is excellent! It has served me as a great launchpad for college in that the staff has found the right balance between forcing academic independence and giving students help when help is needed. As a school, it rewards hardwork and shuts down any problems that may need to be stopped. Overall, I feel that if there was an experience I wanted to participate in, the Etowah teachers and administrators would help me in my goals. An example of this was when I wanted to apply for a certain government internship where I would require a school delegation. I easily scheduled a meeting with my principal where he made calls to ensure me a delegation! Overall, I am very happy with my experience as a student here and feel prepared to enter College.

Junior: I am a student at Milton High School, and in the TAG program, we are offered many opportunities to prepare for our future. I would change the mandatory classes for each grade. I believe that if a class is necessary for graduation, the student should be able to choose what year they take the class during. Also, the process of changing out of misscheduled classes could be smoother.

I am so grateful to attend this high school and become an alumnus in a few months. Go Eagles!

Pope High School

22 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia
Senior: Pope High School is an excellent school. It prepares students for the skills necessary to succeed at college. Over 80% of students go on to 4-year institutions, and the average SAT for 2018 was over 1200. An excellent school with multiple state playoff appearances in sports yearly, from Volleyball, to Lacrosse, Basketball, Softball, Baseball, Swim and Dive, and Cross Country. The only thing missing is the lack of AP courses. This is a hindrance in giving students the ability to boost their GPA, and makes it impossible for students not in the Academies to become Valedictorian, or even compete. Luckily, this is an issue the school has been addressing. Another glaring issue is the workload, as I have no experience with other schools, this many be an endemic nationally. Regardless, the workload is extreme, causing many students to struggle to keep up. The majority of teachers are excellent and show profound respect for students, however: just like all schools there are a few rotten apples

Parent: Our daughter just started her second year at Brandon Hall as a junior this year. Her experience has been transformative in helping her build personal confidence and self-advocacy, establishing better self-management and study habits, and building a cohort of friends that fit her interest and background. The combination of student and faculty diversity, highly supportive academic environment both inside and outside of the classroom, and an emphasis on the whole person and leadership development are exceptional. The head master joined the school a couple of years ago and he is rapidly shaping an already good school into one of the most distinctive boarding schools in America on many dimensions and in particular on diversity and supporting the development of the whole person. Keep an eye on this rising star!!
