As a senior in Athens High School, my years here have been really good, I do believe the district tries to improve our ways of learning for better results and gives us big opportunities for the future. The students here are sometimes not the very best with conduct but administrators try their best to fix their way of viewing situations they get in trouble for.

What I liked about Athens High School is that the teachers are very engaged with their students and the facility is very modern and the gymnasium won the best gym in the state which was an honorable award for us.

Athens does not care about their students, they only care about the money they can make. The teachers are generally poor, with a few exceptions.

I believe that the administration is making great strides to make AHS a better and more effective place f...

AHS has been great for my kids. They have enjoyed the athletic program, and have had wonderful teachers as well!
5/31/2018
My time at AHS was met with many obstacles for which I'm grateful, since they helped me grow into an independent, mature student who can navigate the educational system with ease. The extracurriculars are very well funded, and I take pride in seeing the accomplishments of the teams of which I was a...
