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 teachers, staff and administration do an outstanding job. They all seem to enjoy being there and make everyone feel welcome. Buford City Schools provide a "community atmosphere"

The academic performance of the students is excellent. The teachers are very good and always willing to help the children when they have a problem. Also they keep the parents very well informed about what is going on in the schools. Any problem that we have had has been addressed immediately.
