It was overall a pleasant experience. The courses and class schedules were done as though you were in college to make the transition easier. That is a plus. The staff is helpful but you have to be willing to make the first attempt to ask for assistance. It is a huge school and if there was a threat it was handled appropriately. They would alert our parents if anything was happening out of the ordinary. There are some great teachers but as I said before you have to be the one to ask for help if needed. You could always tell which sport activities were more important than others.

Peachtree Ridge High School has been a great school for student who want to excel in both/either arts as well as academics. The teachers, especially AP teachers, sufficiently prepare you for exams and harder work you’ll have to submit in college. Their arts programs are also well and they match the difficulty of the art to its students.
