    #2 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Junior: I would say my overall experience with my current school Alpharetta High School is good! I am a rising junior and a first generation in my family and before coming in to high school I didn’t know anything especially managing my schedule or how important extracurricular were, but had many people help me. What I would like to see a change is in more help for those first generation kids who are struggling having an extra support without judgment.

    • Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, GA
    • 9-12
    • 609 reviews
    #3 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: I like Savannah Arts because of the opportunities the school offers. It is easy to pursue academic excellence because most of the regular classes are Honors and there are so many different AP options for an extra challenge. I would be lying if I said I loved all of my teachers, but I think that is true of any school. For the most part, however, my teachers are knowledgeable and always willing to help me, but also care about me and push me to be my best. It's not an easy school, but they offer the resources to be successful. Additionally, there are plenty of extracurricular activities outside of just the arts majors so I like the options and variety!

    #4 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Sophomore: I recently moved and at first I was scared of starting in a new school with so many new people. But, to my surprise it was nothing like I thought it would be. It was a community of students and staff that wanted the best for you. Although there are a lot of students, the teachers still give one on one attention. I am really excited to continue my education here!

    #5 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Junior: I love Atlanta Classical Academy! The teachers are amazing and the school really prepares you for college. However, If you decide to send your child to this school, make sure they TRULY understand how to study.

    The downfall of many new students at ACA is that when they enter the school (freshman year for ex.) they tend to expect that the grading system and the rigour of work will be the same as their previous school. I would say in order to do well at ACA you must study hard because the curriculum can be intense at times.

    One critique I would give the school is that the staff is not diverse. As a POC at ACA, having teachers who look like you and can relate to racial problems that may occur at school is very important. However, I believe ACA is currently hiring a more diverse staff for the upcoming school years.

    #6 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: I love Cambridge High School. The interaction among students, faculty, staff and others to include volunteers is outstanding. When I initially began as a Freshman, I had a slight fear. But it took a short period of time for me to realize nothing had changed since my middle school days. There has always been awesome communication and understanding despite the circumstances. The office staff is very knowledgeable and friendly regardless of semester or time of year. I couldn’t ask for a better school system if I tried. I just wish and pray that my children are blessed with the same in the future!

    #7 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: We moved to Oconee County for the school system. My child has had rigorous classes & an opportunity to excel at NOHS. My only regret is that my child has experienced racial bias by some students, teachers & administrators. As a student, I can honestly say that I can't imagine a better school. We are challenged everyday and more importantly, encouraged to challenge ourselves. The counselors work extremely hard to help students North Oconee High School is EXECELLENT! The teachers and staff that my child has had have given 150 percent. I cannot say enough good things about them.

    • Fayette County Public Schools, GA
    • 9-12
    • 360 reviews
    #9 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: Starr's Mill was a fantastic school that not only challenged you academically, but wanting you to exceed in your extracircular activities. The teachers were very motivating and made the students push themselves and exceed not only their expectations but also their own. Starr's Mill also has a great athletic department where I personally enjoyed going to the football and basketball games. The only thing I really didn't enjoy about Starr's Mill was the arrogant and entitled students that belittled those they thought were "less than." Often the student athletes would get special treatment or extra credit from the teachers that others did not receive just because they weren't on an athletic team. I would want to see Starr's Mill change in their approach to the student athletes and try to include everyone.

  12. Walton High School

    • Cobb County Schools, GA
    • 9-12
    • 534 reviews
    #10 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Junior: Walton High School is an incredibly competitive school that encourages academic excellence and provides numerous opportunities for all students. It contains several different programs in different subjects such as the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) program and the International Spanish Academy (ISA) program. However, the school simultaneously maintains a toxic atmosphere driven by the students' need to attain the perfect SAT, the perfect GPA, and the perfect test grade. The classes are much more rigorous than typical high school classes and students experience a high level of stress, anxiety, and burnout, and the workload is massive no matter the class or subject. Overall, students have many opportunities to find success, but the toxic atmosphere of competition and the high stress for each student makes the school less than a 5 star rating.

    #11 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Junior: My school is very well developed in getting their students prepared for college. The staff, teachers, and faculty are very inviting and always help out if needed. Our school is very rigorous in schoolwork, which more than prepares our students for the intense schedules and works at college. In addition to having a strong academic record, our school also advocates for athletics and the arts. All my friends and my classmates are so supportive all around. If someone ever needs help, there is someone to step up. There couldn't be a better school to prepare me for my college and my life goals.

  14. Milton High School

    • Fulton County Schools, GA

    • 487 reviews
    #12 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: Milton is a great school filled with academically excelling students and teachers/administrators who actually care for your well-being. The sports and arts are terrific! The Cirque program is ranked at the top in the nation and many of our sports are state champions or ranked at the top of the state. There are numerous club at school so you will definitely be able to find what you enjoy. If not, it is easy to start your own club too. However, the school culture absolutely sucks with a plethora of stuck-up materialistic children feeding off their parents' wealth. Along with this, around 50% of these students do drugs or vape blatantly in front of teachers in lower level classes.

    #13 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: It’s a great school! The teachers are helpful and friendly. The sports are okay, some are better than others. The whole dynamic is based off of grades and academics, which can be tough at some times. The community is wonderful and there are a variety of clubs to join to get involved. Homecoming week is really fun with the parade, dance, pep rally, and football game. I think McIntosh is a good school for those looking to do many things while still achieving a good education.

    Sophomore: I love Buford High School because not only does this school allow you to demonstrate excellence in Academics, but also Athletics, and the Arts. Buford High School has high standards and pushes their students to meet them whether it be in the classroom, on the field, or on the stage. The Buford community is welcoming and actively strives to help those around them. I love Buford High School. Go wolves!

    #15 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Junior: When I came to Northview I couldn't speak english very well but they have a special class for ESOL student and there are some benefits for them for example In the history classes we have a teacher that help us to understand the chapter better and explains everything that we don't understand, in general all the teachers are nice and they explains everything to us slowly so that we can understand also the counselor helps me a lot, she told me about the graduation requirement and how I can get to the good colleges.
    Also Northview has a lot of clubs I personally join to the chess club and they registered us for the tournaments.
    Northview Gave us each chromebook which make our job a lot easier we don't have to carry a lot of book with ourselves and all the books are available online.
    At the end I love going to school when my is school is Northview!

  18. Elite Scholars Academy School

    • Clayton County Schools, GA

    • 145 reviews
    #16 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Senior: Elite Scholars Academy is a charter school located in Jonesboro, Georgia. I have been at Elite Scholars Academy since sixth grade, and I am now a senior. I felt like the school really pushed its other students and I academically in order to prepare us for college. There is just an atmosphere to excel and do better. The school focuses a lot of academics that sports and clubs kind of get side-lined, which I think is not the best. COVID-19 has also made school a little more tiresome because nobody really wants to do virtual school, both teachers and students. However, I do enjoy the face-to-face portions. I also feel like the seniors get the short-end of the stick because of the pandemic and we aren't really able to celebrate our last year of highschool to the fullest, which sucks. Overall, I really enjoyed attending the school and I would recommend it to students in the Clayton County area!

    #17 Best Public High School Teachers in Georgia

    Alum: I have been in South Forsyth High School for my Junior and Senior Year of High School. At first, I found the classes to be quite difficult but within a month I got the hang of it. South Forsyth is known for its competitiveness (in a good way). This allows students to complete tasks to their absolute efficiency and be productive throughout the year. Attending this school has also allowed me to gain great knowledge about different subject areas and avidly learn and gain skills that are vital for school. I believe I became much smarter after joining this school and have learned to set my good priorities over other ones. I became balanced, open-minded and formed a family of my own with the people at the school. Not only in academics, but South Forsyth also has many game days and events which just made me enjoy and appreciate this school even more. My experience was quite incredible at this school an I appreciate all the teachers and friends that provided and did all they could!

I discovered my passion in choir and have had many incredible role models. They have so many clubs for students to join and involvement is extremely easy. I was also apart of their theatre program which was amazing. I also made tons of friends through theatre that I will keep for all my life! All of the teachers were always so helpful and caring and I never had a serious problem communicating to any teacher of mine.

    Parent: I love that PCA focuses on the whole child. Academics are very important there, but they realize that there is so much more to a student than just how "smart" they are. They show this by focusing on character and community every day through Crew. They also show it by how they reward honors such as Val/Sal, Senior Superlatives, and Junior Marshals. The look at GPA, Dual Enrollment (college classes taken), school involvement (through extra-curriculars), community service, and showing the PCA Way. Students are valued at PCA for so much more than just a "score". That is why I love PCA!

Most of the teachers there are amazing and are always ready to help. You can really tell that some of them are passionate about teaching and are there just for the kids. Overall, a pretty amazing high school experience. GO MUSTANGS!

    Senior: Roswell High School is like a scary pet that you are afraid to touch at first but grew to love. Roswell’s class selections are extremely diverse with a vast arrangement of difficulties. I chose to take many AP classes which scared me. However, my teachers helped me overcome many obstacles those classes had to offer. The staff always assisted me through help sessions, availability to resources, and more. More so, meeting new people was a challenge at first. Roswell had students and teachers that came from many backgrounds. It wasn’t so hard after freshman year to find a group of friends that suited me. Overall, Roswell High School became the catalyst to my pleasant teenage experience.

    Junior: I am still attending this school as a junior now and my experience has been great! I first started attending in third grade when the school was still kind of small but over the years it has expanded. The teachers take time to make sure you understand the topics they teach and they really care for you. I recommend this school to everyone. One thing the could do is have more clubs/extracarricular activities.

    Senior: It has a good academic program, and provides many opportunities for college/career planning. Its size allows for there to be a good relationship between students and teachers there, and it also allows them to work one-on-one with many of the students if they need help with something in one of their classes. Trion High School has a very good campus, and is clean and orderly in the halls and in the classrooms. It also has a computer lab to make the internet and online courses available to students easier. Trion High School also has aa good library and will buy new books that are requested from the students, giving the students the opportunity to read many different books as they want to. The school also has a good sports/extracurricular program, with a good football team. It had a band program, along with a bass fishing team, and has recently spent money to build a brand new high school gym in the recent years. They also have well-kept baseball fields and tennis courts for the students.

I usually get to school 20 minutes early and my first period math teacher and I have great conversations! She is really open, and she listens to what I have to say. I also had a great Spanish teacher last year who recently retired, but she will always be one of my favorites. Also, we also have really great sports teams and extra curricular activities! Of course, Pope isn’t perfect, but I do like the constant efforts from the faculty to make it a wonderful learning environment!

    Parent: Commonwealth Academy is above and beyond what anyone could possibly imagine for their child. We needed to find a small, specialized school so that our daughter could thrive and succeed. It was a thrill to find such an inclusive atmosphere filled with dedicated administrators and teachers. My daughter has an anxiety disorder and OCD. Every single teacher CARES. The combination of education, creativity and fun that they have created is unmatched. The classrooms are small and kids with every learning difference are treated with respect and patience. Without the chaos and fear of a big school, our daughter got past the nerves that held her back and learned to speak to adults and advocate for herself. She had warm and nurturing advisors who saw her potential and appreciated her strengths - they gave her CONFIDENCE. The education and unparalleled college prep she received from C/A is why she's thriving in college today, and why our younger daughter is now a C/A student.

    Parent: We love this school! In moving from Chicago, we wanted to continue a Montessori education for our children and their integration into Springmont was seamless! The teachers are so caring and very accessible. The school and grounds, complete with it's own small farm, are beautiful and allow for a sense of exploration and a natural environment even inside the perimeter. The school focuses on the whole child - so we are confident in the education they are getting but value even more the social, executive function, independent thinking, problem solving and conflict resolution skills they are developing.
