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.

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.

Overall, it has been a really good experience. The administration does the best they can to keep the school safe and at the best quality it can be.

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.

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.
