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.

North Augusta High school was honestly a pretty good experience. My freshman year I had a lot of opportunities with NJROTC and other stuff. Sophomore year I did career center and classes which was very flexible and I really liked that a lot. I'm an early graduate so this year is my senior year and the counselors are very wonderful and interacting when you need help with the early graduate stuff that's why I love my guidance counselor Ms. Anya Stewart the most

It is a good school overall, it just does poorly with announcements and letting other individuals know about other activities.

For the most part, the facility itself and the teachers and counselors were very helpful. The academics were standard and I feel in no way there was a gap in education compared to other schools. However, when it comes to the culture, it is different. They do not really embrace diversity and inclusion and it seems like everything was so political when it came to ideas and changes wanting to be seen by parents, students, and alumni.

As a 2009 Graduate, I loved it. I played Football from 9th to 11th grade. What many don't understand and have complained about is that the money spent on any of the sports at school is all raised from the booster clubs, expect the new field that is the only money Aiken County has give to the school...

Having 3 different students who attended 3 different schools in the AIken/Augusta area, I feel I've let the oldest 2 down because they attended another school. I LOVE this school all the way from the custodians to the teachers to the administrators. My daughter actually looked forward to starting ba...
