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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The Tennis courts desperately need to be redone, there are cracks everywhere and only 2/3 of the courts have nets. I would also like to see more AP classes offered, for example, AP Gov or AP Psych.

Archie Williams High School has a nice campus, mostly friendly staff, and okay students. It doesn't have a super wide variety of classes to take, but they are mostly good. The food is not that great and I can't eat it, but it's free. The school is relatively small and near a shopping center that has some good restaurants. All in all, it's okay.
