Marietta City

Summary:

The Marietta City school district in Georgia consists of 12 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.

Two elementary schools, West Side Elementary School and Marietta Center for Advanced Academics, are particularly impressive, earning 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger and boasting exceptional proficiency rates in core subjects.
