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.

They always seemed to overlook poor behavior from popular students but overall test scores were good and it wasn't an insanely toxic environment.

Both of my children have graduated from Model High School in Rome, Georgia. We have had nothing but wonderful experiences throughout their time at the school. Some of their favorite teachers are the ones they had in high school. My son is still in contact with several of them, even after having graduated. I believe my children were well prepared for life after high school, thanks to the education they received at Model.

I moved here in 10th grade not knowing no one. Everyone was nice and welcoming. The teachers and counselors helped me get the right classes for me.

If you have a child who is going to play baseball at Model be ready to shell out $400 for him in order to play. I have 2 grandchildren at Model who have always played baseball and one of them is a senior who dearly loves baseball and was looking so forward to playing in his last year. He knew that h...
