GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall I say I had a mix of challenges and growth these past to years. The transition from freshman year to sophomore year is completely different. Just from me building relationships with other students and teachers. To playing sports and just pushing myself to reach greater heights id say so far my high school years at NCHS are at a great start

North Clayton High School: A Nuanced Perspective North Clayton High School, like any educational institution, presents a tapestry woven with both strengths and weaknesses. It's a place where potential is nurtured and challenges are faced, where individual experiences are shaped by a complex interplay of factors. To truly understand North Clayton, one must delve beyond simplistic labels of "good" or "bad" and embrace the nuanced reality of this learning environment. **The Strengths: Where North Clayton Shines** * **A Tight-Knit Community:** One of North Clayton's most significant assets is its strong sense of community. Students often speak of the close relationships they forge with their peers and teachers. This feeling of belonging can be especially crucial for students navigating the often-turbulent waters of adolescence, providing a much-needed anchor of support and encouragement. * **

My daughter attends NCHS and has excelled in all subjects and has earned herself a summer internship to Georgia Tech. I think the biggest issue is NOT with the teachers, faculty or administration but with the parents that don't take an active role in their child's learning. A school is not a daycare...
