They are preparing Cobb students to compete on a state, national, and international level .”  \nWalton High School students topped the list with an average score of  \n1,262 . Lassiter High School and Pope High School students also scored above 1,200 . An additional five schools recorded average scores of more than 1,100: Allatoona High School, Harrison High School, Hillgrove High School, Kennesaw Mountain High School, and Wheeler High School .  \n“Our test scores are indicative of the daily work of the students and faculty,” said Walton Principal Dr .

Specifically, I think that our teachers are determined and focused on providing instruction that ensures that students learn the critical thinking skills necessary for success on assessments like the SAT and in life .”  \nLike this year, Cobb students exceeded the state and national averages in 2017 and 2016, the first year that students began taking the redesigned test .
