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.

Elbert County High School has been nothing, but great to me! The school still needs a little work admin wise, but overall my experience there has been okay!

I feel the cleanliness could be better, along with the teachers. I also wish there was more AP/Honors classes to help prepare me for college.

My child is bullied. The teachers don’t care. He given less attention because he has top grades. The teachers fail to engage and train him because they would have to give him accelerated work. His is not going back. He will be taking on-line classes next year.

I pulled my son out of the Elbert County school system because I was teaching him more in four hours than they were in eight. All they taught him were how to play video games and how to play a band instrument.
