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.

My overall experience at Athens High school when well, each year i learn more about the school and also got involved in a few things. I had great experience with all my teachers and administrators, they were all kind and always pushed me to do my best and helped me whenever i needed.

I like that there are many good teachers who actually want to teach in this school. One thing i would change is getting more money to fix all the broken things in the school.
