Columbus High School

Junior: This school is life-changing. It has opened up so many opportunities and connections that I would have never made if not for this school. While this school is amazing, its academics are very rigorous and require a strong work ethic. Columbus High School prepares you for college! However, they only offer AP courses, so if you were looking for Dual Enrollment, it is not here. From a student's perspective, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here and made life long connections.

Parent: My daughter is 8 now and in the 3rd or 2nd grade. She has been in 4 elementary schools. While attending Hannan she has shown the most improvement; she now has a voice, as a family we are able to go different places now. The teachers and resources are absolutely incredible. If I didn't give a
5 ⭐ rating it's only because we haven't got there yet.

Early College Academy of Columbus at Waverly Terrace
Muscogee County Schools, GA
9-12
52 reviews
Senior: Attending Early College was one of the best decisions I have ever made concerning my education. Because it was so small, it was easier to get one on one help with teachers. Everyone knew each other, and there was a pretty friendly atmosphere. Early College offered us a once in a lifetime opportunity to complete an associates degree in college whilst still attending high school! It was a wonderful experience. The only downside is that because of how tiny the school is, we often did not receive the same recognition or respect from other high schools, official, people, etc. We didn't have sports either, however we were allowed to partner with a handful of high schools; they were kind enough to allow our students to join their sports teams.

Russell County Middle School

Senior: Leaving elementary school and going to middle school was a real culture shock for me with all of the new teachers, and students that were coming from several elementary schools throughout the county. But I really enjoyed my time at Russell County Middle School. I had some amazing teachers that took the time to make us feel welcomed in our new environment, and really made sure we were grasping what they were teaching. If you started showing signs of a struggle, they were quick to pull you aside and give you some one on one time to make sure you didn't get behind.
We were always having fun activities that included the school as a whole and allowed s to be more involved with each other, so there was less awkwardness. There were also many new elements brought to the table to help prepare us for our future.
Overall, it was a very good learning experience and stepping stone into my high school years. Middle school will always be remembered as a very positive transition in my life.

Midland Middle School
Muscogee County Schools, GA

1 review
Senior: Although Midland has its own flaws as all public schools will have, I think that its good sides are often overlooked by outsiders. For example, nowhere else will you find teachers that are as close-knit with the students than Midland. Teachers will actually care for their students and form relationships with them, and if the students make the initiative, no teacher will EVER decline to help you improve your academics. There is also a program through Midland that provides a wonderful college preparatory curriculum, which is free of charge. Students will be shuttled up to the Kirkwood regional center- about 30 minutes away- where they will have the opportunity to complete actual college courses like Composition I. All and all, Midland is a wonderful school that has room for improvement but will always hold a place in the heart of those who attend it.

Ridgecrest Elementary School
Phenix City Schools, AL
PK, K-5
2 reviews
Alum: What I experienced at Ridgecrest was once in a lifetime opportunity. The school itself is just amazing. The faculty always try to help the young students. From the highest level of the faculty to the lowest level. They just want the best for their fellow students. I liked how they tried to make the diverted students for an example the Mexican students feel comfortable and make them feel like they were at home. To make them comfortable and feel as if they were at home they celebrated Cinco de Mayo. I would like to change the way they do their testing at the end of the year. I would like for them to give out the test around the middle of the school year. But overall Ridgecrest Elementary School is a wonderful school to go to.

Roanoke Catholic School

Roanoke, VA

Parent: When making the decision to switch my daughter to Roanoke Catholic after being in the public school system through seventh grade, I had no idea how much of an impact it would have on our family. The transition has been amazing! My daughter has been welcomed and immediately became valued. To quote my daughter (14 yrs old), "Mom, it's just a great learning environment". I could not be any happier with our decision. I only wish I had made the transition earlier. Roanoke Catholic School has become a haven for us during this challenging time of Covid. The faculty and staff put the health, safety, and education of the children first. I'm proud to say that my daughter and I are members of the RCS family. I look forward to her finishing her upper school years at Roanoke Catholic School!

Senior: Steward has been a great decision on where to go to high school for me! I was in a large public school before I came here. Being in the small, private school environment of Steward, I have been able to thrive. Teachers are extremely helpful and want you to succeed. Students welcome new peers. The facilities are unparalleled, and the sports teams are amazing considering how small we are.
