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.

During the earlier years that I was at Calhoun Falls Charter School, things went very well. We were one of the top schools in the state, and many student were ready and happy to come to Calhoun Falls Charter School. But, as time went on, the student population and test scores began to drop. I still enjoy coming to Calhoun Falls Charter School, but it is not like it used to be.

The schools environment on a regular day is very good. This is a small town and a small school so everybody knows everybody. It's very rare to see any drama around the school.

My school has been awarded a grade "A" by the state board of education two years in a row. We have the top middle school in the Lakelands area. We were recently awarded the Beta club award for being a distinguished school.

The school is not the best school. It has its perks, but it also has its issues.
