Open Quote Exceptional academics, sports, clubs and campus. This 3 year old school was populated by students/families at South Forsyth HS. As soon as enough data is available, look for this school to rate on par with South & Lambert...with better facilities! Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio
Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
