GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It's a relatively good school and learning environment, there is nothing necessarily outstanding about it but it is better than some surrounding counties. It is overall clean and easy to navigate with reasonable rules and regulations. It definitely makes for a good high school experience.

Bacon County HS is a great school! Students are improving daily and grades are getting better by the years. Staff is so nice and friendly!!

I started going there in tenth grade, and despite its small size, everyone was very open to new ideas and the teachers were all very welcoming. The only problems with the school was the lack of opportunity and the downsized standards they had of students. But the students themselves, despite being your average high school partiers, cared about their grades.
