Peachtree Ridge, along with eleven other Gwinnett schools, was named a 2021 GreatSchools College Success Award winner. The honor recognizes and celebrates public high schools across the country that excelled at helping students to enroll and succeed in college. This year, GreatSchools added an additional, elevated level of distinction— the College Success Award – Gold. This honor was awarded to Peachtree Ridge for our multi-year track record of preparing students for postsecondary success.

Principal Jadd Jarusinski had the opportunity to celebrate Chungin “Roy” Lee and Mr. Adam Sherman as our STAR Student and Teacher. Not only are they our STAR Student and Teacher recipients, but they were also awarded the District STAR Student and Teacher Award!  Congratulations to Mr. Sherman and Roy!

Congratulations to our STAR Student, Chungin Lee. The STAR Student is a high school senior who has the highest score on the SAT in his or her class on any single test date through November of their senior year, and be in the top 10 percent of their graduating class based on grade-point average. Chungin scored a PERFECT SCORE on the SAT!

 The STAR student from each school then picks a teacher who has made a significant impact on their life and academic career to be their STAR teacher. Chungin identified Adam Sherman as that teacher. A big congratulations to Mr. Sherman on this selection and the impact he continues to have not just on Chungin but all of his students.

When picking up your students after school, please use the Car Rider Line behind the school. Please do not use the bus lane at the front of the school. We have many after-school events and need to keep the front entrance clear for those coming into our building for after-school events and activities. Thank you for your assistance as we continue to be an important meeting place in the community.
