North Atlanta High School
5I love NAHS and i think that it is a very good school. It is stereotyped as a "Ghetto" school and "Unsafe" and "bad education." but none of these are true. NAHS is a very good school that is just viewed badley by people that dont go there.....

North Atlanta High SchoolNorth Atlanta is a good school, but suffers from a lack of community involvement. Technically, I am one of the students who are bussed in from the "inner-city" (Metropolitan Parkway) Despite this, I am not only in the top 10% in my class, but also in the magnet program.
One of the fascinating things about it is that you have a small faction that view the rest of the school population as being too inferior (often the kids who want to go to Riverwood or private school) on one end of the spectrum; another small faction of reckless, stereotypical, "inner city students"; and a large gray area in between. It forces anyone who attends to reassess their views on people they might not be used to dealing with, and unfortunately some of the students from Buckhead are too scared of the students from "down south" (who are quite harmless regarding people they don't know) to realize what a great asset this school is.
The academics are actually decent if you are in the magnet program. Something that should be done is to ensure that the people in the rest of the school at least have access to rigorous courses. There are some affluent families from the district that give their wholehearted support to the school, and I applaud them. If the rest of the community would follow their lead without forcing the "inner city" students to leave, then it definitely has the potential to be one of the best schools in the state and perhaps the country.

North Atlanta High SchoolIt is a diverse school, very good for the students and social skills. Academically excellent. For the people that dont like the INNER city kids being bused in, its a shame...its 2009...North Atlanta is a great school even if its located in 'the suburbs'..

North Atlanta High School
5North Atlanta is a wonderful school. It is truly an international school and it is truly diverse. There are many extracurricular and educational opportunities offered. The travel abroad program is awesome. One of my children went to Israel and another to Japan and we have hosted exchange students in our home.
My 4 "inner-city" children have graduated from North Atlanta and have accepted to and attended top colleges and universities(Georgia Tech, Georgetown, Wellesley, University of Pennsylvania, etc).
It's amazing that when a community is homogenized, and they see too many people of color, they run to private schools. Then when the empty seats are filled by a more diverse student population they cry, its not representative of the neighborhood. Just imagine, if all of the high school students in the North Atlanta area attended North Atlanta, there'd be more "white" students there and the school population would better reflect the neighborhood's population. But as long as parents choose "white flight' to true integration, more black, hispanic, Asian children will benefit from the empty seats created.
My "inner-city" children have had friends that were diverse racially, religiously, and culturally. Their friends have been black white, Hispanic, Bengali, African, South American, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu and more. Their friends have been extremely rich (living in mansions) and extremely poor (living in housing projects). Yet they all have one thing in common, striving for excellence. The rejoice in their similarities and are openly curious about their differences. I have watched each child and their peer group leave North Atlanta with a respect for each other's uniqueness and an appreciation of the cultures of the world. Hopefully, my last "inner-city" child, will come away with the same experiences, as his siblings.

North Atlanta High SchoolHorrible. It is not representative of the neighborhood. Most people who live in the neighborhood go to private schools because the school is so bad. A huge percentage of the students are bussed in from other areas. It is a horrible school and we cannot send our child there and we live in the area. It is a huge problem and disappointment and disgrace to the neighborhood.

North Atlanta High SchoolI loathe NAHS. There are too many inner-city children being bussed into the school. The teachers at times display child-like behaviors. The students are misbehaved and will mislead/misguide your innocent children.
