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've been attending Allatoona for 3 years now. It is quite a good school; I always feel safe when I walk through the doors. Most teachers do their best to help you obtain your highest goals.

Allatoona is a involved school. It is not perfect, but no high school is. The principals and staff are easy to reach and talk to if you ever need assistance with classes, AP exams, and even personal issues. The school had a multitude of clubs, sports and honor societies that you can join so it is incredibly easy to get involved outside of class. There are some amazing teachers, and some not as much but there certainly are more of the former than the latter. All in all Allatoona is a wonderful school and you will enjoy your time as a buccaneer.

The class selection is very vast and there are many classes to take as well as extracurriculars but there are not that many community service connections.

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.
