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.

Good school but could be better. Administration is rude to students and assume students are always doing something wrong.

North Gwinnett has too many uncapable teachers who don't care about students' grades for the Hope scholarship or Zelle Millers. The Literature teacher in grade 11 was very rude when she got reminded to enter the missing grade (3 months no grade) and yelled at students' unhearted request. AP Stats is...
