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.

My experience at Flowery Branch High School was good. My senior year I did have a teacher that didn't teach much and unfortunately I had to have her for 2 of my classes that same year. There were some great teachers like Ms.Trim, Crawford, Kallatsa, Grier, Sosebee, Castille, Mr. Burle, Herndon, Tison. That's all.

FB is an overall great school. I however feel like there is one or two more administrators that could learn to be a bit more fair as well as forgiving.

I attended FBHS all four years of high school. It was the worst experience of my life. All my teachers I had (apart from maybe 2) were absolutely horrific. During my years there I witnessed teachers say racist, homophobic, and overall rude comments to students in my classes while students complained...

School did a poor job of addressing issues teens face. Very poor communication with parents.

Growing up here is something I will always love and knowing I was going to this high school since I was in kindergarten makes it that much more special that I spent all 4 years of high school here.

We've had a very positive experience at FBHS. My daughter has adjusted very well being a new student coming from a different state. The teachers have been great and the students have been very nice. I don't have anything negative to say.
