Open Quote Chattahoochee county high school may have small class sizes but the students are not being provided with an education that prepares students for college or vocational schools. The school lacks various technology, up to date textbooks, and other programs that student need to be acclimated with to be competitive with other students in the state. The educational requirements at this school are very minimum and does not compete with other curriculum's in metropolitan areas. Students that have graduated from this school with college level grade point averages (3.0 or above), have chosen not to attend college or fail during the first year of college due to the minimum education their high school provided for them. These students have explained that although they had an A or B grade point average, the education they received at Chattahoochee High was not sufficient enough to prepare them for higher learning. Parents have complained , meetings have been held , and still no solution to this problem. The school system, students, and school staff know the problems that need to be solved in order for the students to receive a better education. However, nobody wants to fix the problem ,just pretend like they do! Close Quote
