Its principal is Dr. Eric Holland. As of the 2014-15 school year, the school had an enrollment of 1,652 students and 88.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 18.8:1. There were 812 students (49.2% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 97 (5.9% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[2] HistoryThis school replaced East Rome and West Rome High Schools. Construction started at the current site, shared with the Rome Middle School, in the summer of 1990.[3] As part of the National Schools Recognition Program sponsored by the United States Department of Education in an effort to recognize distinguished public schools, the Georgia Department of Education selected this school as a "school of excellence" in 1996. The school was subsequently commended by the Georgia House of Representatives in recognition for being selected as the 1996 Georgia High School of Excellence from the 7th Congressional District. The school has been named "Best High School in America" three times by U.S. News & World Report (2008, 2009, 2012). The last ranking placed Rome High 31st of the 446 high schools in Georgia.[4] The school and its students won two Georgia Scholastic Press Awards in 2007,[5] and had two first place prize winners in the 2007 Georgia Humanities Council National History Day state contest.[6] Test scoresIn 2004, before the SAT included the Writing section, the senior class at RHS scored above the Georgia and national average.[7]
In 2007, two years after the inclusion of the Writing section, Governor Sonny Perdue and Georgia Superintendent of Schools Kathy Cox released through the Office of the Governor a list of the 25 Georgia schools with the highest SAT scores of 2007 seniors. Overall, RHS ranked 16th, with an average combined score of 1621. The school tied three others for 15th place on the Reading section, took 20th place in Mathematics, and tied one other school for 13th place on the Writing section.[8] AthleticsRome High School sponsors 31 athletic teams on campus, with boys and girls participating in varsity, junior varsity, and 9th grade competitions.
