This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
10/29/2025
I really enjoy the Music and Arts program due to that the teachers and school know what they are doing to put out there best performances. And the teachers over at Sequoyah push you to exceed more and more and to never leave you behind in order to graduate.
10/27/2025
I transferred to Sequoyah High School after a move to GA, and while it's a nice school with great sports and fine arts culture, there is a lack of school spirit. It sometimes feels like everyone is in competition with all of their peers, teachers, and themselves and no one shows up for sports teams.
4/6/2025
Could be safer. Counselors could be more involved in helping with college readiness by making schedules fit to what the students want to be and having conversations with them early on about college/ career goals.
GreatSchools Reviews
11/20/2025
If you want your child in a safe environment, have an administration that actually cares for students instead of trying to penalize them for everything and anything, learn nothing as teachers, teaching method is passive, not active, stay away from this school.
4/10/2025
I had 4 prior children go through this school and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. The staff doesn’t address issues going on in the classroom and a huge majority of the students aren’t motivated or have clear goals. They are more worried about whose house they will be at drinking or smoking the upco...
4/4/2023
I was a student here and like all students- I had my struggles. But the support I found from teachers and faculty was genuine and beyond what I imagine most high schoolers experience. With my child slated to attend SHS in a few years, I couldn’t feel more at peace with her most formative years in th...
3/3/2022
We are on our 2nd child attending Sequoyah and will have our 3rd there next year. Overall it's a great place with plenty of teachers willing to work with the students. There are plenty of high quality extra-curricular activities including one of the best Choral programs in the State. One of our chil...
