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.

Good school and good facilities but needs more diversity and structures for education as many people can choose many fields.

The school overall is very competitive, with most planning to get into a top 50 college. However, the facilities are old, and sports aren't a strong point in this school.

Northview is frequently rated the top school in Georgia. There is a simple reason for that and that is a high Asian population that test very well and are hyper driven on succeeding in academics by their parents. What you don't see is the dark side. The students are not that happy. They're terrified to get bad grades. They're taking drugs to let them study more. They don't play sports and the staff doesn't even allow pep rallies because it cuts into study time. This is not a well balanced school. The focus is solely on the academics. I highly suggest finding your student a well balanced school.

This school is absolutely boring and depressing i would not recommend this school to your child unless you want them to feel miserable.

This school does NOT care if your child gets bullied. Absolutely crazy how administration handles things and sweeps everything under the rug. Do not send your child here if you care about their mental health.
