If you value your child's education then this is not the school for them. The atmosphere is one that hinders ambition.

Appalachee High has one of the most caring principals I've ever met. My son is graduating this year and continuing his post secondary journey at UGA. AHS has equipped him with the neccesary knowledge and skills he needs to be successful. The open-door policy for parents is refreshing and I personally am thankful I felt I could always call or come by to get any concerns or questions answered. My son excels in both academics and athletics, so I do have to commend Head Coach Davis as well.

This is an extraordinary school. I moved here my freshman year. I have been encouraged to do my best and try harder every step of the way. I've got an "A" average and I've completed four AP courses all with A's through the support of my teachers. Every time I needed extra help my teachers would volunteer without a moments hesitation to stay after school with me. There have been a couple classes that weren't the best, but you get that no matter where you go. Overall I've been very pleased with this school and te opportunities it's given me.

I love this school and after being in private school for three years, I was pleasantly suprised with Apalachee. The principal and most of the staff really care about the students' well being. I thought coming in to a public high school after being in a private one for so long would be a culture shock, but it really wasn't. Yes, the school has its problems, but overall I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is considering attending.

I have had the honor to have 2 daughters attend this high school, administration is EXCELLENT, the curriculum is challenging and college preparatory. I am happy to say, Apalachee H.S. in Barrow County, Winder GA, is a cut above the 'highly desired' Gwinnett County Schools.

I am currently a junior at Apalachee high school and I think that the teachers, principal, and other staff do an amazing job! They are always willing to help and give encouragement when you need it! I am so glad I am able to say I am apart of the student body at Apalachee high school. Much love Ashley Trimble 11th grade
