Overall great facility and state of the arts sports facilities l. Feel safe and comfortable. Great community and college prep
1/14/2025
Overall my experience was good, I made allot of friends and had a great time in the Buford dance program. I loved my law teacher Mrs.Bogans who cared for her students, not just their grades. Mrs.Bogans is the best teacher I have ever had and teaches students valuable lessons to apply later in life.
12/17/2024
The school does a great job of preparing us for the future. Classes are rigorous but not too difficult. Even if someone is struggling, there are many resources available for assistance. The school is extremely safe and we have at least two SROs on campus at all times. The facilities are fantastic and the building is very clean.

this school does not care about its students unless they are athletes or on the honor roll. they make so many children feel like idiots and it was an awful thing to experience. I dealt with bullying for years that was overlooked by everyone.
11/17/2022
We started in this school system when my student was in 1st grade. Loved the community feel, the environment and the teachers. As the school got bigger, the luster of it started to fade. It became less about the student achievement and more about the athletic achievements. Grades were posted and sha...

The school focuses on white upper middle class kids. There are no supports for any kid that is different. Instruction is lectures and quizzes and tests. Kids have to do all the work themselves to get help if they struggle at all. Teachers are nice but inflexible. Standards and expectations are diffe...

We just moved to Buford schools last year when Covd hit pretty hard across the nation.The school gave us options to do virtual or face to face in school.I went to the meeting for concern over face to face in school setting but felt comfortable sending students in school instead of going through virt...
