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.

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.
