we moved within the district a couple of years back and had to transition our child to West Forsyth High School, as managing out-of-district drop-off and pick-up was no longer practical. What initially felt like a logistical challenge turned into a true blessing for our family.From the moment we joined the school community, we experienced nothing but support and encouragement. The teachers are genuinely dedicated, and it’s clear they are invested in helping every student succeed and thrive. Their care, patience, and commitment do not go unnoticed.West Forsyth also does an excellent job keeping parents informed. The school consistently shares valuable resources—from scholarship opportunities to helpful programs—that truly benefit students and their future paths. That level of communication makes a big difference.We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a nurturing and forward-thinking school environment. May God bless West Forsyth High School, its incredible teachers, and may God bless America.

- The Dual Language Immersion (DLI) program is a huge disappointment. It feels like the school sold the parents a bunch of nothing just so they could get more money. They don’t teach the kids much at all, so don’t expect your child to actually learn Spanish. The Spanish teachers are the better teachers, however. They just need to advance the curriculum. - If your child is highly gifted, do not send them here, send them to Montessori or Fulton Science. The Gifted program is inadequate for those with different learning needs. My child was incredibly miserable at KME because of how stifled he was, and his teachers held him back so much that it shattered his self-esteem and he is still recovering two years later.- Similarly, if your child has an IEP or 504, this may not be the best place either. KME does the bare minimum for students. Here’s the deal. They focus on making sure all the kids do the MTSS (it basically the minimum standards-it’s a state curriculum thing) every day. It’s brainless work, but that’s why they rank high on test scores but not high on anything else. So every day the kids do their “MTSS” (the work for the day) to make sure everyone has learned whatever everyone needs to learn. It’s teaching to the lowest common denominator. But if someone needs extra help, they are screwed, because then they go on the equivalent of a company’s Performance Improvement Plan. And if a kid is ahead and already knows the information, they spend half their school day looking out the window because they aren’t allowed to do anything else (they won’t even let them read a book!).- Bullying (social/verbal/physical) is a huge problem, and teachers / staff do not manage this properly and effectively, nor do they bother to always notify parents. Teachers will also punish the victims as well, including on their report card. Teachers also do not step in when children are being racist, or when children are bullied for standing up to racism. There is so much room for improvement here.

The administration is not making any effort to act on any requests from parents, and the staff are rude.Students make groups, and verbal abuse is directed at other students. Numerous physical altercations in restrooms, where students are also using cellphones to record TikTok videos, significantly compromise privacy. Furthermore, any student who reports these issues immediately faces harassment.This school needs attention fromthe educational board.
