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.

The school focuses on sports and not academics. The safety and parent participation is poor. My daughter came from another school and this school district was lacking.

My experience at Anniston High School was so amazing. I was able to be around excellent teachers, staff members, and other students. I was able to play sports I love with amazing coaches. The worst experience I had was doing a bomb threat at our school.
