GreatSchools Rating
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.

Redan was an okay school, you could either be on the good side or pulled to the bad side just from student and peers. There were a lot of fighting and gangs at first but they ended up dropping out so it calmed down my junior and senior year. The school has a lot of potential but the students, parents, and surrounding community gives it a bad rep. I had very good and educated teachers who really pushed me to learn, not all where great but majority stood out.

The best experience with my school is the school involvement. I feel like over the years since covid, the school involvement had gotten better.

Yes, you will have some teachers you can't stand but most of them are there to help you succeed. Redan has the best band in the state of GA (fact), and the amount of school pride is absur...

The teachers and staff take their time with the kids. I wish there was more funding for the school, because they have potential to be great. Staff are fair, and attentive
