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.

There is absolutely nothing that I would change about Bowdon. All the teachers and other faculty is so helpful. I feel nothing but safe walking through those doors everyday. I thank Bowdon for making me into the person I am today.

I love the teachers and most of the students at Bowdon High school. However, I would like it even more if students did not get away with stuff just because they are stars on the football field. Overall, BHS has a very home-like feel where students are able to build close-knit relationships with each other and their teachers.

I enjoy Bowdon because of how personal the environment feels. No one is a stranger here. It is not hard for anyone to find where they belong. For me that is in the band. Our performing arts program is fantastic. There are many programs to choose from. All including sports, academics, visual arts, and performing arts. Bowdon feels like home.
