Education

The Fayette County School System is both locally and nationally renowned for its cutting edge academic programs that prepare students for the 21st Century world. With many of its schools receiving the Georgia School of Excellence designation as well as two having been named National Blue Ribbon Schools, it is no wonder that students in the system consistently outperform their counterparts across the state and nation as reflected on standardized test scores and academic competitions. Our strong academic program, community support, small class sizes, lifestyle advantages and staff development opportunities help us attract some of the best teacher candidates available.

Students attending Fayette County Schools enjoy a wide array of extra curricular activities to round out their total educational experience. From athletic programs that have won numerous regional and state championships to fine arts and performing arts programs, the school system offers something to accommodate every students' interest. Additionally, strong support from the Fayette County community also helps our school system remain one of the best in the state. Many of the county's businesses work directly with our schools to provide additional educational opportunities and volunteers as well as donate supplies to help enhance education.
