Review of Atlanta, Georgia


Public school systems
Star Rating - 8/22/2011
As a sophmore at Alpharetta High School, i am voicing my opinion about treatment of students in Public school systems is unprofessional. There are alot of bad kids at this high school, we change principals every year. This school is like a juvinile detention center. The rules are like a prison. We only get 5 minutes between classes, the kids are extremly rude and snotty and push people in the halls. They dont give us any time to use the bathroom!!!!!!!! If we ask in class they make us fill out a bunch of information, and the answer is usually no. We cant wait upstairs before school in the morning without getting In-School-Suspension. The counselors at this school are usually off, and not very helpful on getting students ready for college. Teachers lock the doors after the bell rings, so it feels like being in lock down. The lunches are really expensive and small, and they even make us pay for a locker and plastic eating utensils and there are not even have enough lockers for everyone. We even get detentions for packing up at the very end of class, so we can get to our next class on time. Often very disorganized, there are clubs, but half the time noone shows up for them, they dont have the right room number, and students often get locked in rooms or out of them after school when this happens.
