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.

The atmosphere at Argos is amazing. The relationships built at small schools are incomparable to larger schools. Teachers take a true interest in your grades and life.

I've gone to Argos Community Junior/Senior High School for 7th and 8th grade, as well as all years of my high school career. It's quite small- every graduating class consists of roughly 50 students- and this creates a really unified, hometown culture. We may not have as many clubs as larger schools, or fancy new equipment each year, but we make up for this with high test scores, dedicated teachers, and friendly students.
