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.

I have enjoyed my time at Etowah. I made friends and study hard for tests. All my academic achievement was due to the incredible teachers i had helping me through my struggles.

Being in my junior year and having home to Etowah since freshman year my experience at Etowah has been overall good. Most of the teachers come everyday willing and wanting to help teach and grow their students and work hard. As an athlete who plays varsity sports and has been playing sports since elementary school Ive had good and bad experiences, however at the end of the day I always love and enjoy being an athlete at Etowah High School.

Etowah was a very great school to attend. They focus a lot on academics and help you find ways to improve. However, it lacked diversity. It was hard for me to find my place at the school. The teachers and administrator were very kind though. There was a diversity council created to find ways to promote inclusion and I really loved that. Overall, I think it was a great school and I felt safe going there.

My son entered 9th grade last year and it was his best school year ever. Teachers held him accountable but contacted me if there was a disconnect. We had a new algebra teacher who was not ready in Aug. 1 meeting with admin and she had the support and resources a brand new teacher needs. My son, the...
