GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I had a lot a fun attending Allatoona High School, made a bunch of friends and easily join in groups and sports. The options are diverse and they continue to make new subjects and draw in bigger communities and groups. I loved all of my teachers and they are helpful and fun to get to know. There are always something to do and you get to meet new people.

I am currently going into my senior year at Allatoona High School and overall I am proud to say I love it. While it offers many chances to get involved, it also has many college level classes. I have met my best friends at this school and they have been the best things to happen to me. One thing that I think could definitely change for the better would be many of the teacher's focus on preparing their students for college and their future. However, I have many more positive aspects than negative about my experience at Allatoona so far.

The staff and teachers are extremely positive and make the atmosphere of Allatoona High School a safe and fun place to learn. My worst experiences have been with my counselor alone. I don't feel comfortable talking to her in person or setting up meetings to talk about college because of her demeanor.

My child actually enjoys coming to school here. Kids can be themselves without being judged. Not a lot of bullying. Teachers make it fun to come to school and learn.
