The latest school rankings released by Niche, a data analysis company, offers a look at how K-12 schools in Buckhead compare with each other. A portion of this report looks at a variety of criteria in determining a grade for both public and private K-12 schools in Buckhead, including academics, teachers and diversity. Here is a sampling of how some of the private schools in Buckhead fared in their rankings:
The Westminster Schools
Pace Academy
Atlanta International School
The Lovett School
The Galloway School
Atlanta Girls’ School
Niche said its 2022 best schools rankings offer a more “personal” view of schools than its rankings in recent years. Significantly less importance was placed on SAT and ACT scores this year, Niche said. Any factor in its methodology that is related to test scores was reduced by one third. The company combined ratings from students, alumni, and parents with quantitative data from U.S. Department of Education and other sources to evaluate teachers, resources, facility, extracurricular activity opportunities and other factors.
