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.

Some teachers are good, but most just teach what they need to and put in little effort into their lessons.

There are not enough classes that challenge students or enough options for students to learn what they want to learn.

Very limited classes, and most of the rules aren't practical. For example, not being able to exit from certain doors. There are a lot of good teachers here that are extremely good at their job. Athens was good for my entire middle school and my first two years of high school, in fact I would have rated it a five star school. In the past two years the overall feeling of the school has gotten bad.
