Some teacher are amazing and others not so much. Most people at our school like to say: "Our teachers are great people, just not very good teachers." However, I think the teachers' disinterest and lack of caring may stem from the lack of acknowledgement they receive and all the recent cuts.

This school lacks professional leadership. Some teachers don't care about academic success for students as they refuse to communicate with parents who are concerned about their children education. I will be homeschooling next year due to this. Grareful for Ga Cyber Academy!!
