I have 3 graduates, one sophomore, and two more on their way to this high school. I will happily debate anyone with a negative review of this high school. This is a good school, with good staff, and in a good town. This school like any other gives any student what they work for. Their band program for my 2nd graduate was phenomenal, they have a solid athletics program, and their AP classes were challenging enough that my kids had to put in work for their grades.A student gets what they put in to their education here just the same as every other school. I made a very specific choice to raise my 6 children in Ellijay, GA in this school district.

There is a large bullying problem at this school. We have been up there multiple times these past few years and they act like they are doing something to fix the problem but nothing changes. My child comes home crying almost every day. It is ruining their life. I am super disappointed in not just the school but the parents of these kids!

This is the absolute worst experience with a school I've ever had. I have another son that went through school in Cherokee County and there were no issues like I've had here. I have a first grader at the school and we are literally doing everything we can to move back to Cherokee County just to get him out of the school district. Just one example: I have called his teacher 6 times and she refuses to call me back. My son will probably wind up failing the first grade and I blame a big chunk of that on how terrible the school is.
