This School’s Reviews

4.0 Senior

I like that Towns County High School is a small school in a small town. I wish the students were more involved in activities and the school made more ways to do so, along with opening up opportunities for more career-based classes.

Students graduating aren't up to the same level of other college entry students! EVERYTHING costs money and is expensive! If you have a certain last name or play sports you have advantages!

4.0 Sophomore

A good school. Lacks when it comes to student body diversity, but that is a not something that can be actively changed. Teachers are excellent, small class sizes so students receive excellent one on one time if they do not understand a topic.

If you're LGBT+ or open about your opinions, good luck getting shut down by literally everyone, inclu...
