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.

Rockdale County High School is not a bad school, it has its pros and cons and is overall a good place to go if you need to get s good education. The people are partially involved too, but there are some issues with counseling as it is not advised as much as other things, along with AP class opportunities. If these things were looked into the school would become a better place.

Rockdale is a good school theres a lot of fun activities but the students make it hard their constantly fighting disturbing class and so much more things the teachers are not always the best but they definitely do try their best to teach us real life things my best experience there was probably a pep rally we had there was no fighting nothing bad happened everyone was having fun dancing doing challenges

A good experience overall. Sometimes there are some off days where it's not that good. Some people at the school are nice. Most just give me mean looks or don't notice me at all. The food is alright, and I do have some favorite dishes like their chicken. There is always many activities going on and many sports you can join to show school spirit. Really just surround yourself with good people and you will be okay.

Rockdale county schools are TERRIBLE. The high school is worse. I have never seen a school that allows students to do whatever they want. The dress code is not recognized and students are very rude. This is an atrocity and something needs to be done ASAP. The class rooms are overwhelming over crowde...
