Flowery branch school is average at best. There is relatively no collage preparation because administration has their hands full with underclassmen. While flowery branch offers AP classes, their on level classes involve a lot of busy work and uninterested teachers.Sports are not the best but arts,band and music department excel dispute their lack of funding. Overall not a bad school ,however not a school I'd want to send my kid to.

Although the academics and sports aren't great, I've always liked this school because of the people. Without all my friends and teachers I don't think I would have the same experience. Therefore I don't think that Flowery Branch is an ideal place for transfers.

My student had really enjoyed her time at FBHS. Staff is always willing to help, communication is with the remind app on phone and provides needed information.

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.
