Local Opinions on High Schools
My wife and I (both 36) are looking at relocating from Texas to Atlanta with our two young daughters (ages 4 and 5) and are mainly looking at Roswell and Alpharetta. We are drawn to these areas given the quality of life and high-rated public schools, plus the charming areas like Canton Street and downtown Alpharetta. Having plenty to do for all of us is important - including proximity to good dining.
I’d have a commute into Midtown twice a week but very flexible, so this isn’t a primary determining factor but has prevented me from looking at places further away like Cumming.
Have done plenty of outside research into the schools, but could use some true local insight. Are there truly noticeable differences between schools like Centennial (7/10 ranking) vs. Roswell (8/10) or Alpharetta (10/10) vs. Milton (10/10)? Denmark is in there and highly ranked as well. Not sure what question I’m truly trying to solve for, just really looking for insight/advice from locals as we are hoping to identify exactly which school to target. Thank you in advance!
