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.

Salem High School is perfect in its own way. The student body is small, so Salem students never have to worry about being overcrowded by other students. I love the fine arts department and think highly of it.

This school was fine. Started there in my tenth grade year. The buildings itself seemed fine but was very unwelcoming. All the walls were brick and bland. Felt as if one was walking through an asylum. And the culture was subpar. No-one cared and no-one cared about no-one caring.

I just graduated from Salem High School and for me is an average school. I had a good experience with my math teacher, he always finds a way for the students to understand his lesson. I also had a good experience with the soccer team, we tried our best to go to playoff but due to the pandemic it wasn't possible and i hope they make it next year.

My overall experience at this school was terrible. I will say a contributing factor is that I had come from the Gwinnett County public school system and coming into Salem they were already behind in curriculum by at least a grade and a half (some classes being even further along than that time frame...
