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.

The best part of my experience at North Forsyth High School is the student-teacher relationships. The teachers are always caring and work to build personal connections with students. The worst part is the fact that a lot of the clubs are not very well promoted.

I started at north Forsyth high school in 2020 as a freshman during half of the school year. It was during Covid time and very different as I went to a smaller school. But over the past years I found to live north Forsyth and it became my home.
